Wait, how does guix avoid a dependency resolver? It still has dependencies for packages... are they just hardcoding exact dependencies (including versions) and relying on the "can install multiple versions of a package" property to make that work? That seems inefficient, though I guess maybe they need that for the "this hash means this exact binary" outcome?
