"forced on an existing build system" really? This is a simple config file and the defaults changed, nothing has been 'forced on' anyone. This is also in the backup array, so if the file has been modified at all, you would get a .pacnew. You're seriously claiming that changing config file defaults isn't KISS? Do you know what KISS even means for things like Arch?
