IMO they should have made this the official policy instead of adding optional support for the AUR in pamac.
At the end of the day, the AUR is just a pastebin full of pkgbuild files for people who know what they're doing. And as a distro aimed more at the average Linux user, rawdogging the AUR probably just shouldn't be part of the equation.

It optional, for power users. That the point.

Could they not have created an AUR mirror and delayed that to be in sync with the main repo's? It would have solved the AUR ddos that the Arch team got mad about a few times and the out of sync dependencies.
