True, but it still won't update automatically with `pacman -Syu`. For an
email client, automatic security updates are quite important. Having to
update manually from the AUR would certainly be a downgrade in user
experience.

Anyway, I can't imagine that not a single Arch packager or TU is using
thunderbird.
