Ok, at least we made this clear. I'll keep the list off the hook, should I need to discuss tis further, in the future. Just for the record, I don't mean to conter thhe Guix aim. I consider this as a temporary mitigation.

Who is Sander ans what did the do for Nix ? How is importing "entire npm dependencies trees" different than importing one package at a time and building the dependency tree gradually ? I have no problem with programmatically defined pacages, anyway ;-)
