$: which guix
/home/thorwil/.config/guix/current/bin/guix

$: sudo which guix
/usr/local/bin/guix

$ sudo -E which guix
/usr/local/bin/guix

$: sudo -i
root@charly:~# which guix
/root/.guix-profile/bin/guix

I wouldn't describe that as working the same way, especially since only 
the symlinks for the plain user are being updated.
