Hiding useful information from users is not reasonable. The same flawed logic of empty KEYWORDS could actually be applied to any ebuild variable. You say "we can't test if it works for all these architectures reliably and for every single commit". Yeah, same goes for dependencies, license and even the description. Because it's a live ebuild, all of them can change. KEYWORDS is no special exception.
