You've never tried Gentoo, then (which is itself a bit less control-freak-y than Linux From Scratch.)

Mind, there are plenty of reasons to prefer Arch over Gentoo -- I run both on different systems, as well as a some Fedora and CentOS and [ick] Oracle Enterprise Linux at work -- but if for a minimal default and a do-it-yourself approach to things, Gentoo is the pinnacle before it ceases to be a distribution.
