As what you mentioned, GNU/Hurd is much like a GNU/Debian/Hurd with apt by default. If I can use APT for the base system and use Guix for installing other applications (ex, firefox, mutt, other userland applications), porting the whole Hurd into Nixpkgs will not be a must-have-now issue. I think it might be a cool thing which letting sysadmin and users decide what applications (and what version) they want. Would mixing apt and guix cause any problem?
