If the use case is "printer setup on my own machine", I think - but I am not at all a security expert - it should be an acceptable solution when the normal user's password and the root password are the same so that from the user's point of view there is just one password i.e. THE password.
Not in the corporate world. Business employees generally do not get root or admin access to their computers.
Either I do not understand what you write or you do not understand what I wrote. I wrote "own machine" with the meaning of "owner" not with the meaning of "who works on it". Guess what: I know an example in the corporate world where particular employees have access to the computers on which they do their work in the same way as if the employee was the owner of the computer (regardless that the actual owner is the company).
