Of course I'm worried, I just attempt to understand my threat model, my vulnerability surface and act accordingly. I understand why security exists. I just want to be able to turn it off without having to resort to hours of research of security tech in order to control the devices I own. Obviously I wouldn't give access to an account with my life savings to my rooted phone.
It is about their bottom line, but largely not to protect me or grandma, it's about justifying control and divorcing people from the power of the supercomputer in their pocket. There's more money in making it hard for me to edit my hosts file etc. than there is in preventing the potential loss of my money/data through these restrictions.
