Tbh i don't really see much of a point to this project, the arch installation is already very easy to do and you need to be capable of doing everything it takes to install arch normally to be able to use arch (e.g. follow simple instructions on a wiki), if you can't, you're probably gonna break your installation and not know how to fix it at some point (not that that can't happen even when you can tho).
If you want arch that's easy to install, just use manjaro, it's a lot more merciful towards new users, in more ways than just a simpler installation process, if you need something like archinstall, odds are pretty high that arch linux just isn't for you.
I do agree with some of the above commenters about weird elitism among arch users, I'm a former arch user and one of the bigger reason why I'm not still an arch user is because their community was just... I believe the most polite term is 'unforgiving'. The distro itself is amazing tho, in spite of it's relatively few (but nontheless sometimes severe) flaws, but I stand by what I said, if the arch installation process scares you off from using arch, just use an arch based distro that's more noob friendly instead.
