If you do updates on that machine, then she doesn't need root to do the
same. Just a duplication (and therefore, waste) of effort.
Plus:
What Steve said......
And:
If the arrangement is only temporary, do you really need to copy her
files etc. across? Because that might be more effort than it's worth.
Especially as you're going to be wiping it later, anyway.
In short - how long do you expect temporary to be?
A day or two.
or

a hundred years later, and we've still got it.)
