Immutable seems like a good idea and it is for security or for a console-like PC but for any sort of intermediate or advanced user, it’s not such a good idea.
From my experience it’s quite the opposite, cause when something breaks in guix/nix/bazzite you basically need to know how the entire subsystem works to troubleshoot it.
You can’t just copy paste some nonsense from superuser to fix it.
I suppose it depends on the OS. But the Universal Blue OSs, Bazzite, Bluefin, and Aurora are the ultimate tinkerer’s OSs even though they are immutable.

Why is that? What do you feel is the downside?
