If you care about it, then you should put in the work; that's kind of how this open source thing works. That how pretty much any volunteer effort works. No one can "force" anyone to do anything, nor should they, and this includes using sudo. If you don't like sudo for whatever reason: then don't use it. If you think there "should" be a replacement: then write it.

Who are you or I to determine where others – including "gigantic companies with tens of thousands of people and manpower" – should spend their time and money?
