I might just be biased by selective attention, but it seems like more and more of these are popping up lately.

I feel like we will eventually recognize a variant of Greenspun's Tenth Rule as common wisdom:

> Any sufficiently complicated build system or configuration management system contains an ad hoc, informally-specified, bug-ridden, slow implementation of half of Nix.

(Although to be honest it might make more sense to replace "Nix" with "Guix"...)
