Could Guix be used for packages that do not strictly contain 
operating system software?

For example, could Guix be used for packages of embedded code and 
their dependencies to be run on a little RTOS, like Zephyr, or 
bare metal, like Arduino or PlatformIO libraries?

Could it be used for hardware, like a Kicad pcb package that 
depends on component and footprint packages, or packages of 
FreeCAD mechanical assemblies that depend on part packages?

Can Guix packages be used for documentation and other data?

Or are all of these types of packages way outside the scope of 
Guix? Although it could still be used for the operating system 
software development environments for these types of projects, it 
might be very powerful to package other types of code and data as 
well.
