Oh, it doesn't matter.This file can be whatever and wherever you want it to be (mine's /etc/guix/system.scm because eww ‘config’). It's in /etc by default since that's where most people will expect it and it's the Unixly-correct place to put system-wide configuration files, and this is the mother of all system-wide configuration files :-)
Now, to be blunt, I don't think“The normal way to change the system configuration is by updating this file and re-running ‘guix system reconfigure’. One should never have
to touch files in ‘/etc’[.]”can reasonably be read as self-contradictory, but if you want to add an ‘other’ at the end I don't think anyone will object!
