What's the current state of affairs regarding duplicate toolchains? If one
follows the suggestions on the PR and installs most things via GHCup and
installs stack separately, don't you download and install all GHC versions
twice? IIRC, this was the case in the past, but I might be wrong. If that's
still the case, some warnings about that might be appropriate on the
download page, because this duplication would waste hundreds of GB on
disk...
