The point is you shouldn't need to "divine" anything.  It doesn't take
much guesswork to find that the things you need for gnu-build-system
belong to either (guix build gnu-build-system) or (guix build utils) –
the latter being a module you ought to already be familiar with when
mixing phases, the former being named after the build system.  
%elm-default-modules OTOH requires four modules which aren't obvious to
the uninitiated or even slightly more initiated Guix hacker.
