You could try a Gentoo-based distro that has a binary host like Calculate Linux. You'll probably still have to compile any packages that you change the USE flags for, but anything that is using the same flags as Calculate will be able to pull a binary without any compilation.
The point is to be able to customise where you want/need to, and to not have to when you don't. The -bin packages for FireFox, LibreOffice and Zig meet my needs, so i use them. i used the -bin package for the kernel to help me create a minimal kernel for my hardware, because messing around with kernel configuration is not my idea of a good time. But more generally, compiling allows me to specify things like: "i want packages compiled with USB and PCRE support where available, but i don't want them compiled with GNOME support."
Yeah. Things have clearly got a bit out of hand when even the creator of KISS Linux satirises the situation: "promptless, a super fast and extremely minimal shell prompt".
