While I see the analogy, saying “CachyOS to Arch is like Ubuntu to Debian” with a straight face is not something I can do.
If you try to interact with an Ubuntu install like it’s Debian, you’ll get very frustrated very quickly.
If you try to interact with a CachyOS install like it’s Arch, you probably won’t even notice you are not on Arch, besides a couple of different package names.

i suppose, it’s a loose analogy he brought up, so i was just trying to speak his language.
the point is, the packages are different, particularly core ones. so it is not straight Arch.
I know it’s not a perfect analogy. It was just a first thing that crossed my mind…
doesn’t bother me, i get what you’re saying.
