There's nothing forcing you to use the system or user profile to use Emacs with multiple packages of your choosing, as shows using for example 'guix shell emacs emacs-magit -- emacs' (Guix shell with create a profile in which Emacs and Magit alone are installed/available). This makes experimentation very easy, unlike what you wrote. It's possible (but not required) to use multiple profiles with Guix, as covered in a Guix Cookbook section [0] [0] https://guix.gnu.org/cookbook/en/html_node/Guix-Profiles-in-Practice.html -- Thanks, Maxim
