Yeah.

Right.

BTW, the reason the solution at <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/20255#12>
was rejected could be revisited.  Since that time, search paths made it
into the manifest itself, which brings a speed up:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
$ sudo sh -c 'echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches '
$ time guix package -p ~/.guix-home/profile -p /run/current-system/profile 
--search-paths > /dev/null

real    0m0.540s
user    0m0.131s
sys     0m0.063s
$ time guix package -p ~/.guix-home/profile -p /run/current-system/profile 
--search-paths > /dev/null

real    0m0.135s
user    0m0.130s
sys     0m0.024s
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Thoughts?
