Explain what this construct is
...
> The chained script interpreter to be invoked
Chained is mentioned here but then also forgotten about: https://nixos.org/manual/nix/unstable/command-ref/nix-shell.html
Mostly it's unclear here why there are multiple weird hashbang lines there that are the same.
Also it's not great that here an entirely new construct is introduced that probably nobody will have ever seen before and to understand what it does you have to go to several different off-site documentation pages.
Can this be rewritten to be more standalone?

* Remove "reproducible" from glossary
It is not part of the official terminology the nixos documentation team established in https://github.com/NixOS/nix.dev/pull/263 .
It was mixed in https://github.com/NixOS/nix.dev/pull/380 and messed up the official status of the terms. This change fixes that!
It can be added again when we figured out what we mean by it (https://github.com/NixOS/nix.dev/issues/464 ).

introducing a negatively connotated word is probably not a good idea.
there is some risk of inducing fear that was not there before, and the
tongue-in-cheek aspect may not come across.
the title should be unique and easy to recognise, and it was. "Reading
the Nix language" is already the title of the talk most of this is based
on, and we shouldn't reuse it

this collapses the "don't panic" section into a motivating introduction and gives
the document a more distinctive name.
this also addresses feedback stating that having "basics" in the title
may be misleading about the effort required to work through the
tutorial.
