I don’t think this matches the definition of a side effect.  ;-)

But yes, that means you possibly end up pulling an extra package just to
build the profile.

It’s actually already the case: the profile is built by running
‘guile-final’, so when you don’t have it in the store, it gets built
just to be able to build the profile (unless you passed --bootstrap).
