You don't need to download a new copy every month or so.
The ISO just provides a bootable squashfs image with a pacman binary, and in fact our official installation guide takes some pain to inform you that you can install Arch to bare metal using the bootstrap image, or using the pacman packages provided by Fedora and Gentoo!
The devtools package has scripts to automatically install systemd- nspawn containers if the host is Arch Linux -- or at leas contains a working pacman installation and the Arch Linux keyring. We use this script to build packages.
We also provide official docker containers as well as vagrant images, under the "archlinux" namespaces.
If you're updating manually *anyway*, this package does nothing -- and there's better ways that even let you update automatically by *not* using AUR packages.

I'm sure there are many, many ways to install/use Arch, however that doesn't change that I want/need the up-to-date iso.
Thank you for pointing these out though. Just use a systemd timer then?
