Oh, I see!  Hiding subjective tweaks to upstream defaults in Guix 
services is a bad idea.

Imagine debugging this at 2 a.m., staring at the official nginx 
documentation through your tears.

How about writing ‘mozilla-recommended’ nginx configuration 
presets that users can inherit from?  This would imply keeping 
them up to date, including the specific versions of nginx and *ssl 
in Guix.

I don't know whether this belongs in Guix or not, but then we 
already ship someone's Facebook blocklist, so... :-)

Kind regards,
