Subject: Configuring Guix with JavaScript?

Hello all!

I have what may be a bit of an oddball question.  Guix is configured using 
Guile.  Guile's default language is Scheme.  The Guix website actually says 
it is configured with "Guile Scheme" and all documentation is in Scheme.  So 
far so good.

However, Guile can also understand other syntaxes, notably advertising 
ECMAscript (JavaScript) and EMACS Lisp syntax.  So my question is: can I 
configure Guix using JavaScript instead of Scheme?  If not, is it a 
fundamental limitation or something worth me poking at?  If so, has anyone 
tried it?  Does anyone have a suggestion where I should start in trying this 
out?

Thanks to anyone who humours me.
