Yes, just a few days ago, I also researched why kdelibs / tdelibs have sudo

see no compelling reason for this. Therefore, I propose to remove this
dependency. Does anyone have a convincing argument against this?

I think it would be better to NOT add a dependency.
Perhaps we can add a "recommends" for tdesudo to tdebase or something
