I'm not sure if Homebrew has this - but it takes me a few seconds to spin up a new Mac entirely with everything i want (minus build times lol). With home brew i was fiddling with "oh yea, this package/lib/plugin is missing" for weeks.

edit: Also, all repos i have are also consistent. Ie i build my repos with specific versions of npm, rust, etc - all per repo, all consistent across all machines, all managed by Nix. Think node-env or py-env (or whatever they're called), but Nix and cross-language instead of specific to node or python ecosystems.
