GoboLinux rationale?

I have some basic questions about GoboLinux as I'm far from a power 
user.  Please don't regard them as critical or snarky as I admire 
innovation.  It seems GoboLinux exists for education/presentation and 
administration.

Education/presentation results from the links which group programs and 
such.  That's good.  Am I correct that /bin, /boot and such are hidden 
by simply making them /.bin, /.boot etc?

Administration seems to be the ability to remove a program using one 
directory.  For instance, rm -rf /Programs/OpenOffice?  However, as 
GoboLinux is designed to compile programs, isn't there usually an 
uninstall command with the source?  I'm a little hazy about the broken 
link explanation for a problem program.  What's the advantage again?

And it appears I can compile a program without a recipe using 
conventional methods.  For instance:

./configure --prefix=/usr
make
make install

The above should work?  The drawback is the program wouldn't appear 
under /Programs.  Correct?

What other advantages am I not understanding?
