But this is not a good enough reason to keep PKGBUILDs for the same source in 
both Arch repo and on AUR.

Arch is not a binary-only distribution: all the build scripts are availabe.

One can always grab a couple of PKGBUILDs from Arch repo's GitLab for 
fine-tuned, microarchitecture-optimized rebuild, if that is what they want.

But AUR submission guidelines are quite clear: they don't mention allowing 
duplication for this purpose.
