If your time is limited to debug or find a fix, then you use a snapshot and use your limited time to report the bug to Garuda (or Arch, in rare cases), so a fix can be expected sooner or later. If you don’t report, maybe it will take longer to get a fix.
Keep local/user data backups, because sometimes you"ll have to delete local .config/something to make your account usable quickly, due to new app settings/configuration.
An Arch system is normally installed only once! That’s not a myth!
