I've been developing my application just fine without any "fighting
for root" or exploits.

I haven't found any need to build firmware, other than as an academic
exercise, and my applications don't have any "codes which need root
access".

What would be the point of developing apps that need root access or
exploits, when you won't be able to deploy them to customers?

How would you distribute it to users, since users wouldn't be able to
install it on their phones?

Have people had problems with losing their recovery image and boot
image?  How did they accomplish that?

It seems to me that if you want Android without the security, you can
just build it yourself and run it on hardware other than the G1.  No
one ever promised that the G1 would be a good platform for people that
want to run non-standard builds of Android.

In fact, it's actually *better* for developers that it's hard to run a
non-standard build of Android on the G1, because it gives developers a
reasonably stable target for their applications.
