Perhaps we should expand what ROP means here. I as able to figure it out 
with some searching, but it would probably help non-domain experts know 
what this package is for.

I believe such a change would be in line with what the Guix manual 
recommends: https://guix.gnu.org/manual/en/html_node/Synopses-and-Descriptions.html

Best,
Jack
