Your system set has 50 entries, that seems to be absolutly normal.
The high count of entries in emerge -e @system comes from USE-flags
like kde (what we have shown in the other post) and probably one or
more other USE-flags.
To lower the number in emerge -e @system you have to look at your
flags, one by one if nothing else helps. Or you could just ignore it,
because all that is pulled in are dependencies of some sort and not in
your @system.

And since I use KDE, it's not like I can disable the USE flag either. I
may be able to disable or remove some others that are not needed or
outdated but still, kde would be there.
I just wonder if the devs have noticed how much this has grown when
packages with X flags are included in the system set?. Would Gnome do
the same? What about other GUI's?
If I do this:
USE="-*" emerge -pv system
I get this:
Total: 50 packages (50 reinstalls)
What a difference USE flags makes huh?
