Who is going to prove that though? It’s much simpler and less stressful on our court systems if a bank just says “we don’t allow running on rooted phones” and then if a user takes them to court the burden is on proving whether the phone was rooted or not rather than proving if the exploit that affected them is only possible on a rooted phone.
