Right, it would be the first command that does that. I became quite convinced that conventions and, thus, implicit arguments can occasionally improve usability. We use tools that operate this way daily: ‘make’, ‘git’, etc. Dave nicely argued about it: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2017-08/msg00300.html But yeah, it is a departure from what we’ve done so far, so we should take the time to think through it. Thanks, Ludo’.
