      A simple yay -Sy from Arch btw takes less computing power and doesn’t depend on an external dependency.

        Any reason not to just use yay? That’s an alias for yay -Syu, which in and of itself, at least if I understood it correctly, is basically just pacman -Syu and from what I’ve read on the arch wiki -Sy is heavily discouraged.
