Depends, i imagine like most things - the answer is nuanced, or at the very least depends on the specific other decisions. For example, i don't see why a configuration would install actual packages - if that's what you mean. Besides, i am not advocating against lazy by itself. I'm just saying that something which is both lazy and untyped is a huge PITA. Nickel adds typing, validation, etc - information, by which you can still have Lazy and a better DX by way of types. At least in theory, i've not used it much. My biggest gripe is dynamic Nix, fwiw.
