"sudo" has configuration to allow specific commands for some group, but as a consequence, has an increased footprint for exploits (via bugs or misconfiguration).

There was a time that I removed sudo from my Fedora installation as redundant, as I always set a root password. Then, over a year later, I had to re-install it because there were (and probably still are) install scripts in .rpms that used it, although for the life of me I can't imagine why; after all, both rpm and dnf need to be run as root to install or remove packages.
