Is it because of this last line:

# User privilege specification
root    ALL=(ALL:ALL) ALL

# Allow members of group sudo to execute any command
%sudo   ALL=(ALL:ALL) ALL

Root is the user account, %sudo is the sudo group.
 

? But does it mean the previous one gives sudo privileges to all members
of the root group? Or is it that the last line gives sudo privileges to
the sudo user, not group?
