If it comes with fully functional command line, unix utils and ability to install linux apps from different stores, that would be great OS.

That's already here. Android has native terminal in the developer settings and it even has a Wayland graphical environment. I have run Weston with a desktop chromium inside, playing a youtube video with sound.
But no root.
The Android terminal has root access. It's a full Debian VM, with hardware-accelerated Wayland graphics through virgl. Of course, that only works on devices supporting pKVM.
A root account violates principle of least priviledge. With proper design a root account should not be needed.
