Do you guys see a difference morally? Why or why not?

Educational - Science, Non-fiction books, Online courses, etc.

Entertainment - Games, Movies + TV, Fiction books, etc.

Ok, but if it doesn't have any of the good features of Linux like root or, you know, actual control over your device, does it matter?

Android has root, you just gotta put in a little bit of work, and give up your Google App goodies like RCS chat and Pay. (you can get them working too, but Google's getting better at detection/blacklisting spoofed device fingerprints making it a cat and mouse pain)
