And if you're so concerned about stuff not working when you root, so can always temporarily remove root with the free app "OTA Voodoo rootkeeper". It's an Android device, there is a way - a simple one at that.
You say you interfere with nothing, then you point out workarounds for the stuff you interfere with.
I know all the workarounds. I have them on my Fire.

I see problems. You are pretending to be blind to them.
There are hoops to jump through to accomplish anything. Better to not need to.

And it IS a hack by classical definition. Making the system work better by manipulating the internals at a level beyond what a normal user would know.
