Ah yes. The sudo high horse. I knew I'd see you again.

If you can elucidate the reasons (plural), you need to be in a root shell, by all means use a root shell. If you're doing because "it's easier" and no other reasons, then you probably need a bit more experience. In any case, always using a root shell is the Wrong Thing To Do.
Yeah sure this has nothing to do with sudo. Right, gotcha.
> If you can elucidate the reasons (plural)
"Reasons" means plural where I come from(denoted by the "s"). There is no reason to repeat yourself. I decline your request for an elaboration. The "don't use a root shell crowd" has clearly won the popularity contest in the same way TSA now has a significant presence at larger US airports.
> If you're doing because "it's easier" and no other reasons, then you probably need a bit more experience.
Don't jump to conclusions. There are few people here who can truthfully claim more experience than I could. Regardless of our experience levels, it bears no weight in the validity of my statement.
> In any case,
Not really.

You are free to hold whatever opinion you wish.
