I wish they'd make this sort of change more explicit. It had me confused

just don't like things like this changing without the change being noted
somewhere.
The RPi confused me too. If I don't have to give a password for sudo, why
do I even have to type sudo? I like consistent and the Pi was the odd man
out.
I always assumed it was there (Pi's sudo) simply to avoid you doing
damage by accident, rather than to prevent others from using your login
to do damage.
meke sure you know that you have root privelege rather than s security
thing.
