How to install arch?

I read the beginners guide on installing arch and I can’t understand:
So I created a partition for the future / for 32 GB and / boot for 100 MB and swap for 2 GB. I didn't make a separate partition under /home. I also made a partition under / mnt for all the remaining space where I'm already used to and on other dists to accumulate all all files and logs for my own convenience.
And then after a few points in the wiki, I need to activate the swap according to the plan and I need to mount the partitions. Mounted / , /boot as /mnt , /mnt/boot . What about my /mnt partition for my personal files. It should be mounted now as /mnt/mnt or you can leave it out and mount /mnt after installing arch.

Arch installation is the first line of defense. If you can do it yourself, then it will go easier.
Why create a /mnt partition? /mnt is used as a mount point for other resources. Why is there a separate section for it?
Okay, let it be /mnt. At the initial stage, it can not be mounted. It can be mounted after installation, and formatted as needed. Only it will be necessary not to forget to register it in fstab with pens.
