From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

The tagline of the distro is "A terminal-centric distro with a vibrant and friendly community at its core" So I'm not sure that is something to complain about, and is by design of their team.
To me it isn't designed as a beginner distro just a preconfigured arch with a nice gui installer and defaults that work for nearly everyone.
Yeah I completely agree, my issue is more with the amount of people that try and push it as a manjaro alternative. It doesn't in the slightest work as a manjaro altrnative for the reasons you've mentioned yet a bunch of people seem to think it is. I've seen endeavourOS recommended to beginners a bunch of times when they ask about manjaro
