I use that as much as possible.
There's really no need for a lot of packages to be in systemPackages or
in some user profile if they only provide a service and don't have lots
of often-used CLI tools. Same goes for udevPackages.

However, wouldn't it be possible to uniq/nub these lists on evaluation?
It's perfectly functional/declarative, but I don't know if derivations
are comparable (for equality).
