Thank you a lot for your interest! So as I pointed out in the other comments, out of the box and for the 0.0.1 release it’s intended to keep the system itself atomically updated through pacman and the user is advised to use flatpaks to install his applications. This is the most user friendly way of going about it, however I’m absolutely on your side and wouldn’t use it that way myself. 0.0.2 will have a way to “unlock” it so you can use the distro like vanilla Arch BUT you get peace of mind from knowing that you have a failsafe way of knowing the system will not break. For the name, I did want Arch-Atomic at first but noticed this would violate the Arch Linux trademark policy and just went with my favorite isotope as a placeholder that unfortunately grew onto me. I will get off the couch now and edit the website so it’s apparent that Pu-239 is just the shorthand and people will refer to it as Plutonium-239 or just plain Plutonium in the future!
