Hi all.

Making latest more discoverable would be unlikely to make it used
exactly by the select few in need of its features.

Probably we better remove latest from the top menu?

I wouldn’t want newcomers to go for latest because hey, it’s displayed
prominently and newer.  The installation routine for the latest
installer image also may break.  Or after installation, some software is
broken.  Which would mean the initial install is broken, and no
roll-back is available.

In the past, the Guix System latest install image also got better
debugging support, but now a new release with debug features is there,
this will not be relevant again.

Regards,
Florian
