The question in my mind is "why did they choose to fork the tla
implementation, when all they seem to be worried with is, what they
believe to be, a user-unfriendly UI?" I mean, as far as I've understood
things, there are loads of projects wrapping up tla's functionality in
"prettier" and "easier to use" UIs.  Have I been mistaken.

I'm sure their intentions are good, yet one has to wonder exactly why
they wish to solve their issues with the current interface to Arch in
this manner.
