We can definitely improve the error reporting (e.g. just the other day there was a patch to better improve error reporting in a system configuration to go directly to the configuration line rather than the system that uses that code). Submitting bugs with unhelpful error messages to Guix and/or Guile developers is much appreciated I hear.
However, it should be hard to break a Guix system, since you can always roll back. Of course you can find a way (I changed an ext4 flag that turns out Grub doesn't like, but that has nothing to do with Guix), but as long as you let Guix do its job and try not to manually work around it, you should be able to undo everything. Of course nothing is perfect, but I hope you reported it. In my experience the Guix devs and community is keen to improve.
