-### Why so many @var_xxx subvolumes?
-Most of these subvolumes come from SUSE's partition layout prior to 2018, before they simply made @var its own subvolume. We cannot blindly do this however, since pacman 
-stores its database in /var/lib/pacman/local, which needs to be excluded and rolled back accordingly to the rest of the system.
-
-Other than that, /var/lib/gdm and /var/lib/AccountsService must have their own read-write subvolume in order to boot GNOME from a read only snapshot.
-
-### Why GNOME?
-I only use GNOME and I know that I have to explicitly create a seperate a subvolume for /var/lib/gdm, /var/cache, /var/tmp and so on for a full desktop to boot from a read-only snapshot. I don't know how other desktop environments behave and which directories we need to create a seperate subvolume for. We will also change the partitioning scheme according to the DE selection as well, since it doesn't make any sense to create @var_lib_gdm on a KDE system. Any help with adding more DE options would be appreciated.
