Do I understand correctly that nolibc is just another implementation of the C standard library in terms of Linux syscalls? Comparably to, say, musl libc?

No it's not comparable to musl libc. Standard I/O functions don't support buffering and the prinf implementation can't print floats.

glibc is a space shuttle, musl is a hatchback, nolibc is a skateboard

They all do the same thing (take you from A to B), but offer different levels of comfort, efficiency and utility :)

Who can take their space shuttle to work these days, what with the price of rocket fuel‽

It's a bit unwieldy, but the good thing is that it comes for free with your copy of GNU/Linux!

And parking is always a nightmare for my shuttles

And passenger safety?

In a head-on collision, the space shuttle passengers will fare better than the hatchback. Even so, it wouldn't be my first choice for most destinations.
