B such as a, or b; or C such as a, or b), that being said it is just a style thing, I can change it back if preferred. Well I had to do it today! (rust 1.65 is defined but not exported, so to install it I ran `guix build -e '(@@ (gnu packages rust rust-1.65)'`, then `guix install /gnu/store/...-rust-1.6.5` I do agree that it's maybe not the best to have it in the same sentence though, but it'd be nice to have this behavior documented. Thanks, Abhishek.
