Ah, good catch. I took a note so I don't forget that. Shortly, the language makes *the first* output the default, when using the packages as values. That is currently "dev" in most cases, but it's possible "we" will change that to fit more use cases in string anti-quotations and other places https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/14766 I personally don't see why "out" might go away. --Vladimir
