Why would they not just use an Arch base like the real SteamOS does?

Fedora and Red Hat are innovating image-based operating systems. Universal Blue builds on that work.

It would take effort to port that work to Arch. Arch is also a rolling distro, not updating means not getting security updates. Fedora's release cycle allows them to get more stability, they don't have to be using the latest version.

That's reasonable. Thanks!
