In my job we have 100+ people who run Linux as their main OS.

Most run Ubuntu or Debian, and a few run Arch. And every few weeks someone mentions again how something broke, and they need to spend some time fixing it. I think the last one was VMWare not working on a kernel yet.

Arch requires more time to maintain, and more manual maintenance. So in order to justify that extra spent time a lot of times they will bring up minor stuff that happens in Debian/Ubuntu, like this bug from 12 years ago, in order to justify running Arch, which is more of a "learn Linux" hobby.
