I've never figured out why people seem to always want to play with the
root account the way they do, such as the favorite "I wanna use bash
for root's shell"...

Since the OP seems to want to keep playing with root he should probably
consider giving the toor user a shell and password so he'll have another
way to undo this nonsense. Suggestion for the future...
