What's the point of this? People should just use the real Arch Linux.

		Not sure what the point is, but "creating your own OS" by forking Debian / Ubuntu / Fedora / Arch and changing the wallpaper (only slightly hyperbolic) still seems to be somewhat popular. One of the best outcomes was RebeccaBlackOS, which ended up being an early testbed for Wayland on the desktop.
