As we can see in https://bin.hubrecht.ovh/?b376f2a3f8e744c3#8hdQHWaR7zvZCtYikanp1CdTL16z5jgD6UBV6b4SECW4 , when we run nixos-rebuild switch with lanzaboote activated, it deletes almost all directories in /boot/EFI/, but the directory /boot/EFI/loader` is used to store the configuration of the bootloader, so it is erased at each rebuild. This is very annoying as when we use systemd-boot there is no longer a timeout and we cannot choose which generation we want to boot on.
