Newbies should be taught to review what they install beforehand on the AUR which almost anyone can contribute to with minimal barriers. Most users treat it like any other package repository but its not the same thing and it's definitely more risky then a curated repository.

Sure! I just don't expect people who just came from Windows/MacOS to get into that. I'm talking "just works" here. Later on, they'll be able to develop that understanding too, but to each its time.
