They don't disrupt updates. The keys are updated via archlinux-keyring,
or via an "Import this key?" prompt via WKD / the SKS pool.

If none of these options are to your taste, you may edit pacman.conf and
set SigLevel = Never, thereby "bypassing" keys. By doing so, you
COMPLETELY sacrifice security, but apparently this is your desire so
¯\_(ツ)_/¯.
