Could I ask you to compare guix and portage? I'm not an expert in either, but it looks like guix provides very similar source builds with easier binary caching/substitution.

I can compare. Ebuilds are nothing in comparison, and guix is much more flexible. What portage has over guix is the wealth of premade packages (for now)
