    Way to lazy to find a source but IIRC one of the Sudo devs said this was horrible because it’s “like Sudo” but not 1:1 so people will make assumptions about it that will lead to security issues

    (Usually idc about security but for Sudo…)

      Like that time they made their own Powershell imitation of curl?
