Oh no, anyway

Boots into snapshot

Yup and I am getting sick of hearing this even on Arch Linux. Like, mofo, you could literally run a snapshot or backup before upgrading, don't blame us if you're yoloing your god damn computer. Windows have exactly the same problem too and this is why we have backups. Christ.

On my Arch Linux Install, I literally have a Pacman Hook that would forcibly run backup and verify the said backup before doing a system-wide update.

Not necessarily, you still need backups or snapshots especially on home directory in case software have a nasty bug like deleting your data.
