It took many years because those smart, experienced, and patient
people made bad decisions, twice, and had to correct them later, which
required rewriting several important internal mechanisms. Which tells
you that smarts, experience, and patience are not enough to get this
right the first time.
But Guile doesn't need to go through all that, it can just use what
Emacs learned the hard way.

Oh yes, they did. How they did! Those screams are the reason why the
stuff was rewritten.
Once again, Guile doesn't need to go through all that, it just needs
to learn from others' experience.
> Perhaps the Emacs approach might be the right one for Guile?
For some reason, Guile developers are not necessarily convinced,
AFAIU.
