impermanence forces you to be intentional with your system, where files are persisted, which is great for: hygiene like feeling like the computer was freshly formatted on each boot; using NixOS as intended by keeping things declarative (in other words, "nixmaxxing"); security also, to a lesser extent tbh, but it'd be protecting against malware nesting at impermanent paths
