Can you point me to the Guix documentation where the functionality you're describing is explained? I have read through the description of package inputs in section 6.2.1 of Guix's manual, but I still do not explain what
advantage patching the search path offers.

I'm not sure I can find a spot in the manual where it is detailed. It comes down to the difference between "search for this program in PATH" and "call this program located at this location". By calling the rg
at it's exact path rg doesn't need to be installed directly.

A patch that includes ripgrep as non-propagated inputs is attached.
