I just wish Qubes had a simpler architecture, such that dom0 and the Qubes Components could be implemented in eg. Guix or Nix instead of a traditional distro. Love Qubes' desktop integrations.

What do you think prevents changing the distro in the Qubes components? AFAIK it's totally possible, see this: https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-issues/issues/1919.

Oh, what an issue! There's plenty of context in there, and it's right up my alley. Thanks!
