I know your question was not directed at me, but I can still point out that for every user rooting may carry at least some benefits. As a minimum, the choice of a reading application and keyboard.

For me the primary reason, believe it or not, is ability to install a keyboard that supports Russian characters. I read in Russian and English, and being able to search in Russian is important. For others, it's essential to be able to extent the stock reader functionality with extra dictionaries and FB2 format support. Or to allow global EPUB customization.
