Are they actually naming the command "sudo" or is that just a comparison?

Edit: apparently yes, the audacity lol

The sudo command offers a way to quickly elevate a command as administrator from your current unelevated command line context and is familiar to some users coming from other operating systems.

From any other operating system

TempleOS doesn't have sudo, you just need to pray for a divine intervention.

You don't need sudo, everything is already in Ring 0 as God intended.

What's wrong with giving a command the same name as the equivalent command from other operating systems?

That would be like calling the lynx command InternetExplorer

To me lynx is an application, whereas sudo is part of the OS, just like cp or cat. I know Linux sudo is maintained separately, but it's part of what is expect in even the most minimal install of any Unix-like OS.
