Guix did a full source bootstrap first, credit where well due, but it does not apply to their whole tree. E.g haskell is bootstrapped with a binary, qemu includes binary firmware blobs, etc.

Guix is not fully bootstrapped or reproducible.

To your point though, the incomplete efforts of many other distros absolutely accelerated us.
