I agree. sudo is no saint security wise. There are lot's of cases where security may be jeopardized. Intentionally or not. My argument is based on the fact that being in your own user shell and having to prepend "sudo" for anything that really requires any other user permissions creates a "virtual psychological barrier" where you need to be "more aware" of your surroundings. Being in a root shell makes this barrier go away and contextual information may not be leveraged well by most humans. And this leads to unnecessary risks.
