That policy doesn't make sense, especially given to number of services outages when it's not possible to op yourself, also it's quite annoying when you have to op / mode / deop yourself instead of just doing op work. However I don't see a reason to make people with root look different than others since most of regular users have no idea what is root actually needed for. If you have access to merge changes on puppet, you have root powers anyway.

Most root are already channels admin IIRC. +v does no harm.
+v is fine. At the risk of sounding pedantic, I'll point out the freenode policy frowns on leaving people +o when it's not needed (although I find the policy kind of silly).
