There's a thread in gentoo-core from 2004 with regards to branding and the outcome was to refrain from it. I don't have a problem, when we do this for live iso's, but generally I strongly dislike it. Users don't choose their distro because of it, so it's just unnecessary bloat. And given that we tout Gentoo a meta distribution, encouraging others to build on it, there's no point forcing them to have to clean out the Gentoo brand, before they actually can use it.

He said he wanted to make it easy, not forcing it. Or am I mistaken?
