All the issues mentioned in these comments would be way too much for me. Sure I could fix them and move on... unless they happened on a very busy day. Then they could tank a schedule.

And busy days can show up suddenly. What if I get a super last minute job right after I decided to update my packages and break something?

It seems like using Arch or any tech that involves any tinkering requires accepting that the system isn't a total point of trust for your whole life. You have to have an attitude of "I'll make it work" rather than "I know my gear is dependable".
