fsck check on boot and Ctrl+C

Well... just today when I was booting Arch, fsck kicked in (30th mount). I pressed Control+C by accident and to my surprise it killed fsck and boot process halted with warnings/errors that read 'fsck failed, should be run manually' . Is this a bug?

No it isn't, because fsck aborted with a non-zero exit code. This boots you into single user mode and asks the root password so you can get into a recovery shell.
