Well, that's a pretty big pro, but to me the biggest one is that your
system will always be up-to-date. If you do 
emerge -uD world 
periodically, you will never have to reinstall your system (barring some
catastrophe). 

I like Gentoo so much I run it on all my computers, including a 233MHz
Pentium II laptop (reemerging world takes more than a day sometime), and
an ancient PentiumPro machine that serves as my home firewall/router.
