to me all sudo features make absolutely sense (except for too loose wildcard handling), also from a security point of view. if you dislike how its 'default' settings for your distro are like, change them to your needs or seek a distro that fits your needs. other way is dont use sudo, login as root directly, nothing hinders you (maybe your distros default setup that does not assume root login, then you'ld have to give root a password maybe) or write your own sudo alike security system if you like.

if you dislike security at all, do everything directly as root (also web browsing), put nopasswd foe your user into your sudoers file or go to puppy linux (afair there is only the root user and thus no boundary between user and root) but as soon as you encounter any Problems related to user-was-also-root, you 'might' have wanted such features ... afterwards then ;-)

simple reasons to let the user input his password before running things with higher privileges:

• trigger the user to start the brian activity called 'thinking' before beeing allowed to go on.
• user uses a webbrowser that could be RCE'd by some webpage to execute a shell then running anything as root on your machine.
