Rooting in and of itself is not risky. Some things you can do with root *and* an unlocked bootloader can be risky like installing custom roms without following directions. You have to be trying to do risky things to have problems. I use root to be able to freeze bloat on non Nexus devices, to backup and restore apps, lower brightness below what is set by the os, and now to just get battery stats. None of this is risky. There are toolkits available to restore to factory state and I think Google knows better than to piss off devs by removing root capabilities especially on Nexus devices.
