Why though? I see intermittent availability, battery drain and security being issues and I don’t see any up-sides.

Oh, I thought you were talking about EndeavourOS.
Speaking of arch-installer there is an install script included with arch that can get you to the graphical desktop of your choice with little input. I used it for my current install and it was very easy.
Nobody offers the service that I can offer myself. Not even close.
I had been off Linux for a few years but recently returned to arch. I didnt feel like mucking around with everything from scratch so I tried the included install script. Next thing I knew I was in a full xfce environment with everything working out of the box.
If arch can drop you in a full DE of your choosing, from an install script, what is the point of these other options? Genuinely wondering what’s going on with them and if I should check them out.
It was redhat around 2001. I burned 3 discs for the install. I was installing on an old computer that was struggling to run windows. I think the DM was Gnome. I remember being in awe that it got up and running after having to re-burn some of the install discs to finish the installation.
Now its a $2mm easter egg hunt to the programmer who can scan the archive for bitcoin info. If OP didn’t take it someone else will.
