Haven't investigated that much so there might be some big catch I'm missing, but I really wish people would stop making custom OSes and just help out an existing project

Debian isn't known for being bloated so I don't get what the selling point here is. If I want a stripped down barebones system why not just use Arch?

"Optimized & Light" but also the system requirements say it needs 10 GB for the just the system itself with 25 GB+ recommended. Regular old Debian recommends 10 GB of disk space too (but allows for installations that come in under 1 GB if you really want light) What kind of bloat did they get rid of to reach the same footprint as the OS they started from?
