Hi @oech3 and TU team,
Thank you for looking out for AUR quality.
Regarding "bad packaging": The packages have just been completely refactored. 
They no longer use debtap. The PKGBUILD is written from scratch using bsdtar, 
all dependencies were audited with namcap and ldd, and a fully automated GitLab 
CI/CD pipeline pushes updates every hour. The pkgver() dynamically fetches the 
latest version from Microsoft's APT repository.
Regarding the "dupe" claim: I created these without the -bin suffix because the 
existing -bin packages were severely outdated/orphaned.
If the strict AUR policy mandates the -bin suffix for these precompiled 
binaries, I am more than happy to delete my 4 packages, provided I can adopt 
the existing microsoft-edge-*-bin packages and transfer my CI/CD automation to 
them so they stay perfectly up to date.
Let me know how you'd like to proceed.
