This is why you should announce risking commits.  Because you may not
know what it will cause, but others will.

If I don't know in the first place, how do I know it's risky?

Afaik there is no official way to update gentoo, is there?

I personally got used to -uaNDv and I don't even know what exactly is
the difference and it's implications between that and just -uD


Adding something to the tree with all keywords set stable is risky. Take a look at the original commit. I understand why mgorny did it, but it should have been discussed.
