Since ex-M users are use to pamac, and there are like 5 different versions in AUR, I would recommend adding the closest to M’s version, which is ‘pamac-aur.’

pamac-common and pamac-gtk are included in pamac-aur(or pamac-aur-git).
pamac-flatpak-plugin and pamac-snap-plugin have no equivalent in AUR. You need to modify the PKGBUILD for pamac-aur and compile in support.
pamac-cli is called pamac-cli in AUR
Not 100% accurate. Manjaro unstable is where they build their packages, so there’s a chance of incompatible dependency versions. Arch stable shouldn’t have that issue because they would catch it in their staging and testing.
On Arch-based distros, services are often installed without being enabled. This gives the administrator the power to decide if they want them enabled or not.
Additionally, cronie is an optional dependency for timeshift so it wouldn’t be installed by installing timeshift.
