I'm inclined to keep it in %network-configuration-files just to be safe.
Strictly speaking, the file shouldn't be present when you remove hosts-service-type but
you could, for $REASONS, have a template that has hosts-service-type removed from the
essential-services and /etc/hosts manually provisioned using etc-service-type or special-service-type.
Unless it's desirable to honor the /etc/hosts file configured in this manner, in which case you should
remove it from %network-configuration-files to respect the users wishes, I'd say the file should
be kept in %network-configuration-files to avoid some strange cases that may arise.
I should say that I don't use `guix system container` so I'm not too familiar with what behavior is
to be expected/“the correct one” here.
Cheers,
Bruno
