He made it look so easy, but I still can't convert my existing config to dendritic without failing completely with the usual inscrutable Nix errors. 😢

I got like 20 modules for nixos and home-manager. Apparently with the dendritic pattern you are not supposed to guard your modules by options? Does one have to import all modules in each host config? Seems like more boilerplate than doing myModules.enableDefault=true
