Hi,

I'd prefer if it accepted both options - for backward compatibility.  We don't know what scripts people use on top of guix - and it's likely that many user scripts already pass "--no-grub", especially since the less-dangerous choice is to pass it (as opposed to not pass it).  There is no harm in supporting both options.
