Describe the bug

Weird input resolution behavior that's uncharacteristic for a distro that emphasizes being reproducible and boring.

Steps To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. install nixos 22.11 with the minimal installer
2. nix flake init in /etc/nixos
3. add nixosConfigurations."nixos" = nixpkgs.lib.nixosSystem { modules = [ ./configuration.nix ]; }
4. boot into installation
5. nixos-rebuild switch
6. we're now running nixos 23.05 (unstable). Ok?
7. be unhappy about the partition layout and learn that a graphics driver fix landed in the release
8. boot into installer to perform an offline fs shrinking and partition table configuration update
9. nix flake lock --update-input nixpkgs to update the graphics driver
10. boot into installation
11. graphics driver is still the old version
12. install Pop! OS

Expected behavior

At (6), do not upgrade to nixos-unstable.

At (9), do not downgrade to the installer nixpkgs

Suggested solution

Remove the flake registry from NixOS to solve (9)

Remove the flake registry from Nix, so that the user must specify the channel, solving (6) and (9).
