In no way whatsoever does Arch restrict the use of unprivileged user
namespaces. Rebuilding your kernel with them enabled is a trivial task for
any user familiar with ABS. If you feel this strongly about it please write
a wiki article about the benefits/tradeoffs and link it with the relevant
application articles (Firejail, Security, etc.).
