Suggesting users use pacman -Rdd is an unsafe anti-pattern that breaks dependency tracking and risks breaking future system updates [1].

The purpose of this package is to enable the use of the sudo-rs package as drop-in replacement for the sudo package.

There's no strict need to use pacman -Rdd here, that part is not that relevant.

The point is that this package doesn't bring much. A simple /usr/local/bin/sudo symlink pointing to /usr/bin/sudo-rs would basically achieve the same (then removing the sudo package from the system is users' choice). We require package submitted the AUR to be (somewhat) useful [1]. This one is arguably not (given the same result can basically be achieved with a simple symlink).
