It's easy to disable rootful Docker support in an ISO, but much harder to fix the vulnerable installations. That is not the system working as intended.

And sadly, this stuff isn't bewildering at all. We saw it happen with LARBS, we saw it happen with Manjaro, then Archlabs, and now Omarchy too. All of them endangered themselves by shipping dotfiles that none of their users understood, and few of their developers would justify. When Manjaro's repos conflicted with AUR pkgbuilds, thousands of their users didn't understand that Manjaro had a special repo override for system packages that lags 2 weeks behind upstream. Omarchy tempts the same fate by stacking custom packaging channels and pacman scripts on-top of a system that gets advertised as "regular" Arch Linux.

Distro variety is always a good thing, but there has always been different levels of commitment to it. If I was putting together a Linux system for a kid or someone elderly, I'd just give them Fedora/GNOME instead of trying to get them into larping r/unixporn.
