Reproducible scripts are scripts using Nix so that we don’t have the problem of “It works in my machine”
Ok, no, thanks. This should work on all distributions with their package managers instead of needing a separate layer. The approach to first package it and then write addons is a bit weird.
That's the thing with Nix: It works on all the distros.
Distros could of course also package it themselves (nothing preventing them from doing that) but having a baseline in Nix that you can point to makes the distro's job easier here aswell. If it works via Nix but doesn't in xyz distro's package, you know where the problem lies.

… as long as you install Nix.
You could say the same about Docker, Flatpak, AppImage or even Snap. Nix is nothing special in that regard.

Well, with the exception that all of those tools use userns to ship almost a full userspace tree while Nix uses no containerisation whatsoever to do its job.
You can make Deb and rpm from nix packages supposedly.

Sticking to reproduceable builds also makes sense for development and troubleshooting, less variables to run down.
