My favorites are Debian for servers, Arch for desktops. Debian in desktops didn't really work for me... a rolling release makes more sense.

Debian unstable and testing are rolling releases.

They don't have the same guarantees as a real rolling release distro. My experience of SID is things randomly breaking and having to be very careful whenever you update. And because it is not a "production" intended rolling release, they don't have the same guarantees for security fixes either - they can be quite unhurried.

On arch this is all much less hassle.

No they aren’t. During the release period, they pretty much stop getting updates altogether.
