    Ha, I also have something similar[1], but I use a mix of profiles and flavors. I have two profiles: pkg for installing packages and user for configuring user profiles. Profiles are then broken down further with flavors: dev for development packages, desktop for desktop packages and configurations, and so on.

    I found it highly amusing that we're taking similar approaches for a lot of things: a wrapper function for sudo and fetch, and OS detection (especially the appending WSL suffix part). Mine is not as idempotent as yours, and having a per-package definition is still in my TODO list, though.
