The bootstrap binaries form the roots of the dependency graph. Modifying them results in different hashes for all packages. I learned this when a colleague accidentally modified these files in our deployment, which made Guix refuse all of the substitutes from Hydra and instead rebuilt the world locally. I don’t think you can realistically get rid of them. ~~ Ricardo
