Technically, Endeavour does have its own repos but they only contain a relatively small number of non-essential packages. But yeah, other than that it’s basically pre-configured Arch with great defaults.
No, the defaults are worse than the arch defaults, the wallpapers are ugly, dracut has worse documentation for desktop use, yay is bad, and the firewall GUI is pointless bloat (the thing on the KDE settings app is just better). Just use Arch.
It might be bad, but bad is better than nothing for tons of people. I would not have engaged with arch if it weren’t for eos, but now that I have I might switch to arch in the future, after getting a “transition layer” so to speak.

A lot of what you said are just personal opinions.
