I agree. I have had rooted androids ever since I bought my first smart phone. I have never had an app refuse to load but that would piss me off. I want root access to my phone just like every other computer that I own. The root user is literally the owner of the device. If you don't have root access you don't own it as far as I'm concerned.
There isn't really enough that is appealing about jailbreaking iOS at this point where I would forego 50% of my banking apps for it.

You wouldn’t have to. I haven’t come across any app that doesn’t work with a jailbreak hider app.
I've come across a bunch. General there is a workaround, but I don't want to spend hours trying 3 different "jailbreak hiders" and finding a version of the app I can downgrade to using AppStore+ in order to use it normally.
And since these are all tethered jailbreaks, I don't want to completely re-install a banking app that locks itself up after I open it in unjailbroken mode (so the hider isn't working, but their jailbreak detection still does) after my phone dies and I forgot to re-jailbreak it.

Can you name a few that Liberty doesn’t get around?
They aren’t tethered completely. More semi tethered. I haven’t reconnected any device to a computer to re-jailbreak in many months. Most devices can use unc0ver. In which case you have to be Un-jailbroken for close to 7 days in a row for ReProvision to not renew unc0ver.
So that issue is a pretty big rarity.

Pretty late, came to this post from the post on the exploit unc0ver uses being patched, but Liberty does not work with the app "NemID", which is sort of a 2FA for all banking and public service apps in Denmark. Have yet to find a JB hider that does, and so had to un-jailbreak.

Yeah. I think I ran into an app too. It is Square Cash.app. Otherwise I don’t get why it still works with the debit card they give you but I can’t use the app any more. I was able to downgrade it because of jailbreak and use it again. However at some point they’ll likely force me to update.
(If there's an app that's truly essential for you, I'm sorry, that's a shame. But I haven't encountered that in my many years of using Jailbroken iPhones.)
