Everything can be intrepreted as sending a bad/good signal by someone.
But it is important if it really is sending a signal.

In this situation, by agreeing on not including it, it is definitely
sending a signal. While on the other hand, if Guix's stance would be to
package any software, because the software is important, not who writes
it, I don't think any signal is being sent as regarding to who is author
of such software. It is only if Guix starts choosing if to
include/exclude software based on the authors of that software when Guix
starts showing a stance in regards to that and becomes more political.
