Ok, I understand very well every problems related to the use of root

Translate to another question:
I use a normal user, but I want to use another user for another
program, because I don't want that the programs can access to my data.
The program has a GUI so I need at least to permit to that user or
that program to acquire my screen.
This was the scope of xhost.

It beats me why one would go through all the effort of extraordinary
measures so they can run as root, rather than just run as a user, and
use the system in a straight-forward manner.

because they drive a car with 4 speed stick shift and they like to
skip 1st, 2nd, and 3rd gear? :-)
