People might just not like nix for a number of legitimate reasons and they might to take an attempt at a new package manager with better UX. It's fine to make a new piece of software, even if 100 tools exist already. Package management is definitely far for a solved problem, and I personally don't think than nix is "it".

You're right, sorry, I could have phrased that better. It was a legitimate question.

And no nix is not "it". Don't get me wrong I use nix as much as possible but it's frustratingly close to "it" but it isn't "it".
