From the paragraph above, I can see you did not get the difference

You may, but we don't, as it is vague term. On GNU website, we never
use "open source" to refer to free software, as we have to promote
freedom.
what's your definition of freedom then?
For me both cases are n

Live-bootstrap (still under early development state at the moment) is a pure

Guix is nice but at the moment it requires Guile(approx 20mb of binaries) to

https://github.com/fosslinux/live-bootstrap - there are even plans to
integrate it with Guix directly, Debian and many other projects.
That is
of a dynamic library just because this case is not properly covered by a
non-limitative list of illustrations.

soning behind the necessity for a mechanism
in the case of web applications (JS/WA or otherwise) is well explained in the
article.
Seeing the OP, initially I thought it was completely uncontroversial to add a
compilation target such as WA to a gnu package
if there is a use case for it.
