Sorry to start a discussion about that when y'all are busy with opam2. I think the "system" switch is the number 1 source of issues for beginners that try to use opam and come ask for help on #ocaml @ freenode; my advice is almost always to use a non-system switch and it fixes their issue. Therefore I think opam shouldn't use the system switch at all unless explicitly asked so.
