He/Him; Senior Software Developer, IT Swiss-army-knife.
Lots of coding, some hardware, some devops & sysops, some micro-controller electronics.
I used Arch BTW :)
Agreed, the effort to understand really helped me later in solving issues that came up even when dealing with other operating systems and programming situations.
You mentioned many of the reasons why I decided to use Arch too. It takes a little bit of effort initially, but it's totally worth it in the long run.

I really like Arch. I completely GNOMEd it, and I like that pacman handles dependencies better than apt.
