How the errors/debugging compare? From what I've read this is the main pain point with Nix where a more mature language like Guile should have a much better experience here. The article touches on this but I'd be curious of a more extensive comparison about this aspect.

And which an LLM/AI model can apply the huge training set of Lisp/Scheme to help solve your problem.

Nixlang is so infuriatingly obtuse that I generally have to fire up Discord and bug the local Nix acolyte when something goes wrong. I've bounced Nixlang off of the LLM/AIs, but I have learned that if the AI doesn't give you the correct answer immediately for Nixlang then you need to stop; everything forward will be increasingly incorrect hallucinations.

I suspect LLM/AIs will hallucinate far, far less with the Scheme from Guix.
