## ISO image nix store & cache
The iso image holds the store to the live environment and _also_ acts as a binay cache
to the installer. To considerably speed up things, the image already includes all flake
`inputs` as well as the `devshell` closures.
While you _could_ provision any machine with a single stick, a bespoke iso maximises
those local cache hits.
For hosts that don't differ too much, a common usb stick might be ok, whereas when
there are bigger differences, a bespoke usb stick will be considerably faster.
