If you want to avoid boot issues, stay away from Arch-based platforms. Their goofy pacman installer has borked my boot numerous times. I prefer Debian-based or specifically for recent-enough-packages-and-stable desktop, Debian Testing.

Wouldn't all boot issues caused by pacman shenanigans be solved by setting up snapper or equivalent? Luckily haven't experienced one so far

Yes I do that. Half the time it just deletes the grub generated image for some reason. So the solution is to often mount the drive and grub update. Ridiculous that it even happens though.
