-     If <option>users.mutableUsers</option> is enabled (the default), changes
-     made to the declaration of a user or group will be correctly realised when
-     running <command>nixos-rebuild</command>. For instance, removing a user
-     specification from <filename>configuration.nix</filename> will cause the
-     actual user account to be deleted. If <option>users.mutableUsers</option>
-     is disabled, it is no longer necessary to specify UIDs or GIDs; if
-     omitted, they are allocated dynamically.
