My idea of using GNU Guix was that guix is kernel and userland
independent package manager that doesn't create conflicts with other
package managers so i was thinking as integrating it into a backend to
handle the packaging across multiple systems to avoid hard dependency on
downstream.

Practical example: you can install guix on e.g. on GNU Trisquel and use
guix packages alongside apt packages from trisquel and guix can be
cleanly removed on demand after the fact.
