Interesting, I had forgotten about Guix and now is just the right time for me to try it out, thanks for reminding me.

Haha. Yeah, modifying "live" systems without a strict mindsets tends to cause that, the worse is linux images running on production VMs which are partially specified by e.g. Ansible but there are little modifications here and there that are done by one person or the other and when that machine needs to be created you get a nice surprise.

Guix is in a really good place right now and I'd have no reservations recommending it. Of course, there is the initial onboarding experience which can be tough if it's a completely new concept but overcoming that is 100% worth it IMO.

I could absolutely see that being worse in a really big and scary way. Lisp is great because if you try to call a function which doesn't exist, it'll scream bloody murder at you, so we got lucky that it was immediately picked up. But that's lisp for you, incredibly nice and easy to use.
