Root's guix is used by default only on foreign distros, where the guix-daemon service is ran out of root's guix profile. On Guix System there is nothing that would by default use root's guix and most users do not use it. So unless you have a special purpose for it and run something from root directly, you don't need to pull it at all and can even delete the root's generations to save up some space.
