I opened a tracking bug about it: https://issues.guix.gnu.org/53224 I think we can adapt some older presentations (video-recorded) about Guix, because they helped me understand the subject quite clearly when I watched them when I first learned about Guix. The manual's treatment of profiles and propagation is authoritative and correct, but it does not quite communicate the subject in a way that combines to make these error messages understandable.
