Ok, but most "active contributors" are people that submit ebuilds to devs and 
know nothing about the structure/policy/whatever about ebuilds.  If you're 
not a dev, you're probably not going to worry about revision bumps.  If 
you're a dev without alternate arches, you're probably not going to know 
about how other arches can get screwed by improper pic handling. 

To conclude, active contributors are generally in a focused environment. The 
quiz is there to help show them the global way of handling things.
