I think there should be an option to take hard links into account, but it should probably not be done by default. There are cases (e.g., when using ‘guix pack’ or when evaluating the amount of data that will actually be transferred over the wire) where you want to know the “apparent size”, ignoring hard links. Note that it’s a bit more work to take hard links into account since currently ‘guix size’ just queries each store item’s size to the daemon. Thanks, Ludo’.
