Cool, but to be fair Linux is made to not make you root.
In most cases a sysadmin somewhere is root, and you may only pledge to him by email and wait weeks for when he decides you waited long enough for a reply.
User permissions are quite strict in Linux.
I’m still pissed there is no way for a user to decide to open a shared folder to other users which enforces base permissions without root doing that.

Mind you, on my own Linux machine I can become root while on Windows all I can be is someone with admin rights (but subordinate to SYSTEM).
Yea, it’s a completely different security model, due to coming from Unix (a multi-user system) while Windows started as a single-user system.
Windows is user-centric security, Linux is file/process-centric.
Linux is arguably better, but it also requires more management.
