100%. Rich's suggestions with regards to documenting a "here's how you
build a container that can be air-dropped onto gentoo infra and booted,
and incrementally updated on request" process would possibly go a long
way with all of this.

Random devs can band together, build some GitFoo container, get it
working Gud(TM), and petition Infra to deploy it (probably in some
semi-official "this is just an 'speriment" namespace till it ossifies)

Making the Infra side DeadEasy(TM), and the contributor side
DeadEasy(TM) reduces all the real friction points beyond politics.
