Why I shouldn't use Discover on CachyOS (Plasma) ? (self.cachyos)

I installed CachyOS with Plasma DE and found it has no discover in it. When I searched on their sub lots of people say that one shouldn't use Discover with any Arch distro as it will break the system. Can anybody clarify why?

Also if I am not supposed to use Discover, can anybody suggest an actual GUI application store? Unlike Octopi (which I consider just as a TUI with check boxes and columns)

Edit: I only use Discover for find and install new apps.

For updating, I just use paru.

I run caxhyos with discover but only for flatpaks? I haven't had any issues

This is what I was planning or hoping. I knew that Discover could break MX Linux for the same reasons, there is no interactive shell. But for flatpacks ONLY, why not? There is nothing to compile.
Perhaps appimages as well.

Discover presents a really nice store front.

There is always Bauh. But Bauh is heavily Python and could get me into dependency hell.
