I would compare it to the combustion engine. All combustion engines function is mostly the same way.

The use case for the engine varies though. Some people need a lightweight car(alpine), some just want the standard car(Debian) and some want to make their own car (Arch)

So how they differ is really down to how people want it to differ.
