Unfortunately, Nix uses a completely non-standard (non-FHS) file system
layout, essentially the Windows one. In Fedora/RHEL terms, think "every
package is an SCL". That approach has major drawbacks, too.
I think there is no way around 1. per-package deconflicting for parallel
installability (while maximizing FHS compliance) and 2. banning parallel
availability for any non-leaf package for which point 1 has not yet been,
cannot be, or will not be done. (Leaves can usually get away without
parallel installability.)
