It is completely fine that NixOS is not reproducable for me. I personally switched(from arch) because my old setup was very finicky(eGPU + optimus on the go for iGPU) and i was sick of random updates bricking stuff. I'm becoming too old to enjoy spending an hour+ tinkering with stuff that suddenly broke. Now it is hard to imagine going back. I just enjoy that applying all my customizations is a single action.
But Linderud has a good point, and I think a community like HN is rightfully interested in busting myths like this. I didn't know how the hashes worked, I haven't needed to have a relationship to them. But now I do!
