OpenBSD is a niche product, but Arch is not? Perhaps it is only my opinion, but a system used by a small number of people that requires each user to perform constant maintenance in hopes of avoiding a broken system, for the purpose of having the latest shiny new sh*t, fits the definition of niche market more than OpenBSD.

(Hopefully you read this whenever you return.)

* Not trying to insult Arch, but it is essentially a hobbyist system for people who like to tinker and have the latest shiny new sh*t. That neither makes Arch good nor bad, but it is definitely for a niche market.
