Okay, but at that point why bother with the intermediate OCI images? Especially with nix, if you're gonna use Nix you may as well build the OS directly (i.e. use NixOS).
OCI isn't a particularly good image format, the only thing it has going for itself is that it's the thing Docker uses. I would absolutely not be surprised if 90% of future bootc OCI images are built with Dockerfiles.
This has nothing to do with docker.
