From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

We used to do that a lot, in the 90s and early 2000s. We determined that that's not a good idea. People even ran DEs under root.
I'm not saying to run everything as root but most of the reasons given for sudo are bull. This blog post makes a good job of debunking them.
