Wow. We must have totally different mindsets/operating styles.

I'm forever needing to know when I did something. Usually not to fix a
problem, but to build a context from which I can remember something
else. ("Let's see, I know I paid the electric bill online the same day I
installed "starvoyager"; when was that?" as a trivial and hypothetical
example.)

So again, we're simply back to the idea that sudo provides no benefit to
you, but it does to me.
