i have proposed a solution for a special case of this problem: to do alphanumeric sorting, which together with semantic versioning picks the latest from the collisions of different versions of the same package. see: https://issues.guix.gnu.org/50878#12 the cleanup commits reached master by now, but the actual change of the semantics of the union has not. it needs to be revived/rebased. in its current form it wouldn't help in your case, but it points to the relevant part of the codebase.
