To be fair, the proposal was rather sparse, but > `guix home' creates/updates all home-profiles which have a home- > profile-manifest that is not #f meaning that if you specify ~/.guix-home without packages or a manifest (thus making its home-profile-manifest #f), it does not create/update the profile. My wording differs from yours in that mine does not imply that the directory is created if none exists, but yours is the saner option here, so we may want to add that check.
