1 - Depending on your job and habits, you really don't have to. The only time I use it anymore is for Git stuff, and even that isn't required, I just am used to it. 2 - It's very rare I compile anything, and it's never manual. I'm OK with the AUR. I use Yay so it's all seemless anyways. If I weren't and had a no compile no matter what mindsey, I'd probably just use Debian or Ubuntu or Fedora where you really never need to compile anything. Or use Flatpaks. 3 - I don't game, but from reading, that's really made a ton of strides lately.
