Sudoers glob expressions are a horrible footgun and I have little empathy for anyone complaining about their removal, especially when it’s trivial to fix with 3 extra (explicit) lines.

Tools have to be allowed to evolve. Half the Linux ecosystem's problems are caused by sticking on some design that made sense in 1980. At least the command is still called sudo or run0. Changing it to doas would have been a much more breaking change. Alas, TFA blocks me with no workaround because I'm using Tor Browser so I can't read about the nature of the changes.
