I guess the reason it strikes me as strange is, on linux the usage of `sudo` helps you understand which operations might be dangerous in a fine-grained way

So like if you are executing a series of commands, the one requiring admin privileges tends to be one you might want to be more careful about (i.e. altering system configs, or doing a potentially insecure operation)

So if you are running everything in an admin terminal, it seems like you wouldn't have that extra check to remind you to be extra mindful of a particular operation, since everything you do in that terminal is in the same bucket

I think generally people rather treat everything they do in the admin terminal as dangerous, and do everything else in another terminal or in the GUI. The typical windows admin experience happens on a GUI, even when remoting in, so the idea of using multiple windows for multiple things is more natural than in the SSH experience typical in the linux world
