You are reading the guideline wrong, I am afraid.
This is not a substring substitution, ${foo:0:3} picking three
characters from the beginning of foo.
It is "If CC_PACKAGE is UNSET OR SET TO EMPTY, then use the fallback
value that is ${CC:-gcc}", which is a bog standard bourne shell that
predates POSIX. The colon before "-" is what adds "OR SET TO EMPTY"
part; without the colon, i.e. "${CC_PACKAGE-${CC-gcc}}", then you
get the same without "OR SET TO EMPTY" part.
And we do use that form.
