There does however exist a /usr/portage/sys-boot/grub/files/grub.conf.gentoo on my system, It just has to be a) Updated to stay relevant b) Placed in a place I expect to find it c) Be referenced in the grub-2 post-install messages or at very least, more prevalent in https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/GRUB2_Quick_Start Because encouraging everyone to use it the way that has clearly seen resistance in gentoo doesn't seem to be helping. Though I do see the documentation is better than it was when I switched, the message that you can use a simpler configuration scheme is not prevalent enough for people to be noticing it.
