Those are all good points, thanks Edouard.

That sounds about right. Be careful though that the guix installation
image often is widely out of date. It may therefore take quite long to
install your system, if it works at all (if will fail if you use
packages that were not defined when the installer was created, or if you
use channels).
I think you can work around that by creating a btrfs filesystem on an image
file, mounting it, and guix system init-ing your system on the mount
point, then unmounting.
This is untested, and I'm not sure how to make it so the image doesn't
take too much space. Maybe converting it to a qcow2 at som
