i don't see how it's a design mistake, linux allows more footguns in general to not decrease utility. Allowing you to manually give root prompt access (with warnings!) to a non-root user is one of them. you can also just not run

I disagree, Sol Trujillo became ceo of Telstra in 2005 and immediately started cutting everything to the bone, Kevin Rudd didn't even get into power until 2007 and the NBN wasn't announced until 2009, fairly large gap there
