I wonder if what you're really looking for is "guix system image", which
will build something that is basically "pre-configured" for bootable

However, I'm not sure how to combine it with an encrypted volume.
(One advantage of this path is that you can test your built image in a
VM before you try booting it and writing it to a USB key, btw.)
