Doesn't Gentoo itself offer binary installation now?

Yes it does.

AFAIK Calculate provides more profiles (predefined set of use flags) - instead of just Gnome or KDE/Plasma - it also has Cinnamon, LXQt, MATE and Xfce, as well as one for server(s).

And Calculate also provides binaries for those profiles.
