Where does the ‘him’ come from? I don't think I've ever implied that pronoun. Also, while making a VM, installing some OS, downloading a binary inside and running it inside, is definitely technically possible, I consider it time better spent doing other things with a (to me) higher value / cost (e.g. reviewing a package definition for ld50-silent- syphoon, investigating actual bugs(*), some infrastructure patches ...). (*) Only binaries made from within Guix can feasibly be supported by Guix, though some separate entities aim to support this to some degree. Greetings, Maxime.
