It says (a bit reformatted):
┌────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ Should you eventually want to uninstall Guix, run the same │
│ script with the --uninstall flag:                          │
│                                                            │
│ ./guix-install.sh --uninstall                              │
│                                                            │
│ With --uninstall, the script irreversibly deletes all the  │
│ Guix files, configuration, and services.                   │
└────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘

My 2 cents' worth:

That sounds dangerous -- what about putting all the deletions
in a TAR_DICT/TAR_FILE_NAME.tgz as a default, with suitable
default alternative commands for various capitalized names
in a (bash) select menu -- which could also include
    "Just do it, I know what --uninstall does")
