Most Guix contributors are also users, so this may need to be reflected
in some ways.

GNU/Linux would probably be better given the audience here.

The distribution is certified by the FSF but it's a GNU package. The
FSF doesn't maintain the Guix package though.

So maybe this could be better:

I'm also unsure if it should be added to the list or not but being able
to install software on top of another distribution is a common use case
so that might be a reason to use it. And this can be done for a wide
variety of reasons (ship software to users, use it in some QA process,
etc).

I'm also aware that this option is also included in a question on how
we use Guix.
