The current bug with the grub update has still not been fully identified and confirmed, and it’s a package from the Arch repos anyway. So delaying by 48 hours would not spare you.

The suggestion of @yum13241 to try openSUSE Tumbleweed is not a bad idea. It has its own idiosyncrasies, but requires less user management overall than Arch/Endeavour.
