Arch follows the nice KISS principle and a bit of DIY. We should have default a simple and sane system that works, and if anyone feels the need to install some crazy new fangled type, they can go ahead.

OpenRC works well in Gentoo, i don't see why it would not work well here.

So, OpenRC could be proposed as an alternative init system in AUR. -- Nicolas Sebrecht
