I think the fundamental issue here is:

The interface for sudo, is a well-known and relatively easy interface.


The interface for (administering) rbac, is not.

Most people dont give a damn about "finer grained control". they just want 
to get done, what needs to get done, in the simplest way possible.
sudo is the best fit for it.

  "alias sudo=pfexec", does not meet that want, as well as regular sudo does.
