That's not what [0] describes, is it?  It illustrates some service 
concepts, using real code as example.

It doesn't imply that the example code can or should be added to a 
system configuration.

Nobody: (gnu services base) defines udev-shepherd-service but does 
not export it.  It's not intended to be API, nor do I think it 
needs to be.

You might be able to use (@@ (gnu services base) 
udev-shepherd-service), which forces the module to give up its 
secrets.  It's not good style, and it won't always work but often 
does.

Because it's naive.  See <http://issues.guix.gnu.org/43498> and - 
please! - beat me to a fix ;-)

Kind regards,
