* 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). --------- Co-authored-by: davidak <davidak@users.noreply.github.com>
