That reads pretty clear to me. If you use root privileges to cause damage to your phone, that’s the same as using a hammer to cause damage to your phone and obviously not covered by warranty. As long as you don’t damage your phone with root privileges (pretty hard to do IME), you should be covered by warranty.
Source for that?
You must gain root privileges in order to flash anything; that’s what the oem unlock is for.
Whatever you flash has full access anyways.

I had this thread in mind however seems like I was partially wrong. But there does not seem to be a definitive answer.
Should have read the thread further the first time :D Sorry about that
