If eix-test-obsolete is outputting waaaay too much there there's an
opportunity there for you to clean things up, if not today then over
time. Once you get it right it outputs almost nothing.
Note that I run stable and then use ~amd64 in package.keywords rather
liberally where I currently have 20-30 testing packages selected.
I haven't cleaned anything up in months.

Time is the problem right now. I got about 50 mater plants, 15
eggplants, about 100 pepper plants of different kinds, three rows of
okra, two rows of peas, and just planted three rows of snap beans, 16
hills of squash, 5 cucumber hills, 5 cantaloupe hills, and a few others
that I forget. Did I mention I have nutgrass? I make rounds every day
for that. THAT is some work. Since it just rained, it will be popping
up real good now. This next week will be so much fun. < roll eyes >
I did have a time that it returned nothing. It took me several days to
get there tho. Right now, I don't see that happening. What would be
nice is if portage would print a little message when a USE flag goes
away. It does a good job of letting us know when one is missing. It's
half way there now. lol
