Hi Aron, in addition to what the others say (i fully support): note, that arch does not support partial updates, while nowhere you'll find a maximum time between updates, that is supported. i have done the exact same this summer - experiencing no problems at all. i was away nearly two month. i didnt bother with several update steps as well… greetings
