Improvements are always welcome of course.  The main criterion would be
to remain consistent with the rest of Guix and with GNU conventions that
we follow.  Maybe it’s best to discuss what you have in mind first?

Thank you,

I'd go with (one of: nothing-special, backtrace, debug)
with the assumption that for more information the manual is more
verbose.

Sounds good to me.  Would you like to send a patch?

I also just noticed that we have 'man guix-system', which could be more
verbose on the subject without needing to fit in a concise output.

Manual pages are generated from the ‘--help’ output, the canonical
documentation being the Info manual.

Thanks,
Ludo’.
