For some of us commanders on consoles, Xbox in my case, the free Arx every week are a godsend. Here in Japan, Elite Dangerous is technically not available on console so we are unable to buy cosmetics using Japanese Xbox gift cards or credit cards. Now in a few weeks I can finally get the paint job for my Asp that I've always wanted or maybe more with the (hopefully) upcoming Black Friday sale next month. I'm sure, with time, FDev will work out the bugs that came along with the introduction of Arx. On my next trip back to the islands I'll be sure to pick up some Xbox cards to purchase the 2020 update and buy some more paint jobs to support FDev. I thought I'd throw some positive light on Arx since there's so much negativity in the forums these days.
Mahalo for the free Arx FDev!

Now, I am perfectly happy with the way Arx are being earned, but I will admit I am ashamed I didn't even consider this. Frontier enabling free cosmetics access to territories where they need a a workaround to play the game. I wonder if Frontier considered this when they decided what to do with Arx... If so... bravo, Frontier. Bravo.
Which you could have purchased (and been enjoying already) for about a quid prior to the ARX
I'm OK with getting them for free.
