Some apps run in full screen. Without allowing adjusting the frontlight from within the app, it's very cumbersome to do that in such a mode.
There are all sorts of other behaviors that you can't modify without root. For example, Note Air automatically wakes up when you disconnect it from power. This is not something I like and (as far as I know), such a thing can only be changed with a root.
You may not need root for your use patterns and requirements, but I (and others) do.

Thanks, good to know. I think I can live with using normal Android controls to manage the screen or the control ball in full screen apps, and luckily I don't have a Note Air so I'm not suffering from having to have keep plugging it into power often to keep it alive
That kind of thing can be really irritating. Do keep us posted on how you get on, if I could use the fingerprint sensor without having to resort to an Onyx account, I might consider it...
