As I see it Rooted feet just "glue" the soles of your feet to the ground.

So, depending on the case you may even crouch and almost kneel.

But remember it is a spell and it have a spare description of possibilities, so the penalty to all attacks besides ranged attacks is because most combat require foot movements, so if the character wants to do something that is not an attack but requires foot movement it will be impossible or more difficult (-2 at least).

As Fred says, spell casting depends on the skill of the caster and if they need footwork to cast.
