Well root isn't great for security, it's true. Someone who is less aware of the potential security problems of having root access probably shouldn't have it on their primary device. (I don't tell people what to do with their phones, just my humble suggestion.) You can use a ROM that makes F-Droid a privileged installer, though, which is nice.

I really wish the root permissions system on Magisk involved entering your password instead of just a yes/no prompt, and that there was an option to never remember your permissions and just ask every single time, like how it works with Sudo in Linux.
