In fact, not only Android emulator has a root mode, it is also not too difficult to root a real Android phone to do the naughty things that you have described.
You are right, you can easily root any android phone nowadays... but what you lose?
OEM such as Samsung, Google, OPPO and other brands will lose feature when rooting a phone:
- DRM Keys, used by on-demand streaming apps such as Netflix, are stored inside the BootLoader. If you unlock your phone you will lose those keys and you phone will run Widevine L3 = Applications will not stream higher than 480p.... you will lose ALL the FHD features.
- Bank Application will mostly not run on a rooted phone, there are workaround to get them running but it is tricky and if the app is well programmed it can't be fooled;
- Paying services such as Samsung Pay, Google Pay will not work because you got "SafetyNet" failed, again there is a workaround but who knows when it will be patched... you will not be able to use your money anytime;
- Other services such as Phone encryption, Samsung Health, Samsung Secure Folder and the "same service of other brands" will be likely blocked.
