Also isn't it just a script to install some stuff and customize

I think the last mile polish has always been a big weakness of the oss ecosystem (on average), so this kind of integration into a nice package is important work, I think. Personally, I’m really enjoying Omarchy.

Like Dropbox was "just an sftp server"

Managing servers that store terabytes of data for you isn't exactly the same as configuring and stitching Linux programs together.

My point is that it’s not about what work is done, but about what users get from that work.

Everyone could, in theory, learn how to configure Arch and Hyprland, but most of us don’t have the time or interest to do it.

So Omarchy is to Arch something similar of what Ubuntu was to Debian 15 years ago.

It's not, though, Ubuntu worked out a lot of UI/UX that is just not there in Debian.

Omarchy is mostly a custom configuration of the same OS, nothing more ...

I agree that they should have sponsored Arch directly instead but nepos gonna nepo.

That's what I thought but I just checked and 3.0.0 was released 5 days ago and it has an ISO.

omakub (https://omakub.org/) is/was (for Ubuntu), this looks more like a "real" Arch derivative.
