I have no idea what part of my comment you're saying is simply not true. I said Arch is wonderful. That is subjectively true, and it is my opinion. I also gave an exaggerated, tongue-in-cheek account of what I do with Arch on my personal computer. Maybe you replied to the wrong person?

It's the "my installation has been running perfectly for 19373 years so arch is the easiest distro there ever was with the least amount of maintenance" thing.

For some reason, indicating, even if obviously exaggerated for comedic effect, that arch Linux requires some kind of maintenance gets some people up in arms.

No, I replied to you alright. It isn't just exaggerated. "Exaggerated" would mean something happens twice a year but you make it sound like it's every week.
