The problems with NixOS are not the only ones you highlighted. The baggage it brings in the name of reproducibility is not justified in my eyes. Because a) They're not the only ones working towards it, but they like to paint it that way and b) Their implementation is not the only correct way, and again they like to paint it that way. The main people behind it may not feel like that, but the hype creates a very repulsive aura around the project for some of us. I just don't want to touch NixOS just because of the community and hype around it. There are many ways to achieve this reproducibility, and the old school ways are not very behind when compared to NixOS. Some things are achieved differently, but it's perfectly achievable with Debian and RedHat packaging infrastructures.
