I don’t know.  Geiser is pretty neat.  I like that I can send anything
from a Guix source buffer to the REPL and invoke Guix commands on them.
This close interaction between the evaluated source and Guix actions
blurs the line between what is flexible code and what is the cold and
clunky shell environment.  Using Geiser is a feature.

Invoking mere shell snippets isn’t quite as interesting.
