Is there a specific reason not to include the "inherit eapi"[1][2]
thing?
IMHO this would fit best in "Abstract Solution (Part 1)" somehow like:
-There are two potential solutions to this part of the problem,
+There are three potential solutions to this part of the
problem,
* wait for old package managers to fall into disuse
* 'blind' old package managers to ebuilds using later
constructs
+ * use "inherit" to have old package managers almost silently
+ ignore unsupported ebuilds
