Kernel Updates
I installed a small program and that triggered pacman to update the whole system including the kernel. During this process, I realized kernel updates could be handled better:
Kernel updates delete the old modules and so the newly installed modules don't match the running kernel. The running kernel can't now load any further modules. I believe modules should never be deleted by the system (or at least in a much smarter way).
