It’s nixpkgs that includes the overlays, not colmena. At best this is a nixpkgs bug.
It is you who decided to use an impure mix expression.

It's probably very easy to fix, and I can most likely submit a PR quickly if I receive confirmation that this is a behavior colmena devs also want to change.

Ah sorry I misread. What you describe is not a colmena bug, but a (mis?)feature of nixpkgs.
The top-level expression of nixpkgs defaults to ./pkgs/top-level/impure.nix, which has a lot of highly impure default values for the initialization parameters. See this link. That's where the overlays come from.
You can use nixpkgs/pkgs/top-level/default.nix instead which has no impure defaults.
