It's been inherited from the original Gentoo ebuild, so I'm not sure, but
I believe it has to do with Gentoo policy, where optimization options
should be controlled via /etc/make.conf et al.

True, but as I said, I believe it has to do with Gentoo policies.
You should be able to achieve the same level of optimization by setting
the same flags in /etc/make.conf.
