I have to second @polygon on this. I am not informed about the internals of why Flakes are considered a suboptimal solution, and I also think that publishing DetNix 3.0 just like so is weird, to say the least. However, Flakes work perfectly fine for me, I am using them for all of my projects and they solve what I want to have solved: Easy specification and locking of dependencies (inputs), and also the specification of what the project at hand provides (outputs) directly using standard CppNix without dependencies.
