I don't think that would change anything.  Sure, every time you do an
update some things might change and might require a bit of work.  All
of the snapshot/... stuff proposals are just about delaying updates
(and the associated work)

Arch is not, and will never be about automatically changing
configurations and things like that.  A snapshotting system also won't
change that.
