Soon, websites will require kernel access to make sure you don't have cheats installed. (Sarcasm, obviously)

Not that extreme but some banking apps on android did check for root at some point and refused to run so there may be precedent

It might be more common than you think. Some major SAST tools complain if you aren't checking if the device is rooted, and it wouldn't surprise me if some naive shops blindly followed the recommendation without need.
