Just to follow up on this, Flox puts packages in one group by default so they share dependencies, plus our quantized catalog means way less version spread than raw Nix. So I do think we still improve on the Nix story, here.
We're also adding "stabilities" (downsample from daily to weekly/monthly snapshots) to reduce churn even more. Still need GC, but a lot fewer bags on trash day. .
