Root home is usually in / since any other directory may be mounted
Therefore, If you want to do admin with a broken disk or handle
your disks in Single user you need root to be in /

BTW. You can use su from ordinary user if you want to be root and
stiil retain the current home
( su - ) Changes HOME also, su alone leave the current.
