Testing can't prove that it's correct, only that it's incorrect... All
Aside from all the way you've disabled dynamic dependencies for a whole
bunch of packages without realising it, your other problem is that some
of the breakage won't show up until later, when people start bumping
and removing ebuilds.

And this is the problem: you need to think carefully about dynamic
dependencies and fully understand the problem. Superficial testing won't
give you the whole story.
