Caveat, I don't use Arch and am not in any way connected to the community. However, since several people have mentioned it but no-one has actually linked it, this is the redirect for WSL in the arch wiki:
It specifically redirects to the subheader "Arch Linux distribution support ONLY". I'd draw specific attention to "Posting issues with,
and requesting support for, derivative distributions or operating systems other than Arch Linux are
prohibited."
It sounds like they're taking a very hard stance against allowing discussion on anything but "arch linux as installed described by our documentation and using our repositories". I know Arch has a lot of spin off distros with custom repositories or configurations, and they probably get annoyed answering support questions for them.
It seems like a loss to me, since these WSL images are using "native" Arch repos/userlands except for the WSL2 kernel, but I guess they'd rather play it safe than sorry.
