Think about it this way: USE flags are to ebuilds as options are to automobiles. Some automobiles offer all-wheel drive as an option. Some don't offer it as an option all. And for some (e.g. Subaru) the cars all have all-wheel drive and it's not an option. Just the same as all-wheel drive (and brake pads) are not an option on a WRX, arts is apparently not an option on a noatun. The IS 250, BTW, offers AWD as an option.
