AFAIK, modifying the rootfs in a persistent manner will produce very
weird results next time you boot, and then you won't be able to draw
any serious conclusion from your experiments.
I personally combine two approaches, depending on the need:
* build a modified ISO image
* start Tails and modify files in there (it *is* writable, but of
course the modifications go to a ramdisk)
