Well, this is actually not strange, but documented in the manual, I realise upon reading it again.

However, the current behaviour is not consistent with the documentation. "Instead of referring to these directories, users have their own @dfn{profile}, which points to the packages that they actually want to use. That profile is normally stored in @code{$HOME/.guix-profile}, and each user has its own profile."
"@item address@hidden @itemx -p @var{profile} Use @var{profile} instead of the user's default profile."
This should be easy to fix.
