Me neither!  But when loading profiles we suggest this approach:

   export GUIX_PROFILE=/the/location/of/the/.guix-profile
   source $GUIX_PROFILE/etc/profile

The variable is set in that case, because that affects whether absolute
store file names are used or the symlink
“/the/location/of/the/.guix-profile”.
