Regardless, where ever one enters a foreign repository in pacman.conf , when you remove, without warning on an unsuspecting public,  core Artix packages then the system is compromised and becomes at best a hybrid system.

I'm going to try the shouty thing:
NO , NO ,NO. WHAT ARE YOU ON ABOUT ?
(That was fun but is there any way to make it flash?)

Which is a healthy attitude if you are going to do that.... although I would hope that someone would be willing to collaborate with you.  Don't just don't expect it from the core distro.  They already ***support*** a systemd free system and xlibre on top of that.

You are still missing the point. I have no wish or need to collaborate and I don't expect or want it from the core distro.
But some people want to discuss such customizations.
There was no request for implementation by Artix.
You could always choose to just leave such people alone instead of running round like Chicken Licken shouting "The sky is falling."

if you hybridize artix with parabola by hacking pacman.conf.

Just don't expect everything to be roses and and chocolates if you hybridize artix with parabola by hacking pacman.conf. 

NO YOU CAN NOT.  That is misinformation and you are wrong.

Good Lord, "Hacking pacman.conf". I just hacked my own /etc/fstab the other day.

So rationally tell people this then, for the benefit of those noob users who think a random thread on the forum from a fairly new user (no disrespect) is official Artix team advice.

You were wrong. You still are wrong. You probably know deep down you are wrong?
One can make any distro anything one likes. Some things are harder than others but very little, if anything, is impossible.

No I am right.

But committing the developers to it is just WRONG.

BTW - Telling someone to calm their "tits", or whatever obnoxious syntax you used, is sexist, regardless of the gender of the person you are aiming the insult at.  I don't greally care because frankly I had classmates in Junior High School in Brooklyn more skilled at such useless vulgarities blended into their regular conversation over baseball and did so more artfully than you would ever be able to master... but still, you should know it says more about you than me.  It shows you have a serious problem with women, at least in this instance.

The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command. His heart sank as he thought of the enormous power arrayed against him, the ease with which any Party intellectual would overthrow him in debate, the subtle arguments which he would not be able to understand, much less answer. And yet he was in the right! They were wrong and he was right.

What I wrote was correct.  I was going to let you have the last word, but I wanted to dispel any notion that I was wrong with regard to the suggestion or that I feel I was wrong about the objection.

Adding a foreign repo to Artix will not give you a free version of Artix without problems. Given enough time, if not immediately, it will screw up Artix.
