That is a common misunderstanding.

If you have (like many people) have your account allowed to do
everything with sudo, than it doesn't matter if you have to type the
root password or your own. If a attacker can get hand on one of that
two, he can use it.

Moreover, it raises the attack vector from one password to two.

That stupid use of sudo (That was initialize introduced by ubuntu)
should have an end.

Another think is if (or not) you should allow login as root via password
at all.
