The name "destination directory" (especially in the form destination-
directory) is both overly verbose and not really explanatory at all.
Perhaps you might want to instead use "prefix" and have some reasonable
default like ~/.config/guix/home – alternatively, since all these files
are used in the same sense as /etc/skel, you could name it "skeleton"
with an explanation along the lines of
Existing configuration will be copied to SKELETON (default
$HOME/.config/guix-home/skel). The name of this folder can be
specified via --skeleton=DIRECTORY. If --no-create-skeleton is
passed, /etc/skel will be used instead to at least initialize a bare-
bones bash-service.
WDYT?
