What exactly is the point of rolling release? My pc (well, the cpu) is 15 years old, I dont need bleeding edge updates. Or is it for security ?

You'll need to update to a point release sooner or later.

Are you the kind of person who lives to peel off the band-aid or pull it off in one go?

I prefer to peel mine. I've learned from pulling stitches by ripping it off.

On a more serious note: btrfs and timeshift are 👌. If there ever is a botched package, I'll just roll back to this morning and keep working. It'll probably be fixed by tomorrow.
