For the record: Julien was right.  'modify-services' was enhanced to
support deleting services about 2 days before Julien made this post, and
I didn't yet know about it.  I checked my own local copy of the Guix git
repo, which was a few days old, and it didn't occur to me that the
functionality had been added so recently.  Sorry for the confusion.
