I kinda understood half of the things you said, but i run DietPi on mine.
It has 64-bit support, you can update the os without resetting everything, still based on the original kernels for the closed source optimizations, but removes all the clunky and slow parts, leaving a very lightweight and fast os.
Plus, for newbies (like me) it has a decent built-in installer for various software with minimal ulterior setup required.
It sounds like you’ve found your ideal distro. Great! Not everyone will have the same exact use case for their Pi’s.
I’m just a little disgruntled because I like treating my Pi’s as headless servers, often with a single purpose, and I don’t want to have to erase the SD cards to upgrade versions.
