This needs to be more visible. The linked Tweet:

"macos 10.13 bug isn't limited to root in all circumstances; via ARD, you can log in as any existing user (e.g. _applepay) and share the screen of the logged-in user. also _uucp is allowed to log in"

So even the current workaround of changing/creating the root password is not enough.
