What is the use case?  I have missed some context.

For example, I have the package 'guix' in some of my profiles and I
would be annoyed to be warned.  And I have it for good reasons. :-)
Once the story about extension is good enough, maybe the warning would
be a good advice, otherwise it could be confusing.  IMHO.


All the best,
simon
