If I understand this correctly, what you want is something similar to
NixOS' --profile-name [1], is that correct?
When I used it back then, the advantage of having named profiles was to
have a specific "music production" profile, with a different kernel
(-rt), different DE & so on, which I knew would always work (I updated
it very rarely).
