Sometimes, but nodejs or npm won't work properly without the headless chromium VM, and would need bypassing local file-access security-sandbox restrictions most normal system Web-browsers enforce by default.

If root installs OS supported VM packages, than it would be pointless to complain the system runs as expected. As a sentient turnip, I probably wouldn't know for sure... =3
