After run0, systemd's replacement for sudo, was announced last week [0], I decided to write my own that doesn't require systemd.
It's called urdo.
Despite not touching sockets for 10 years, and then only once in University, I quickly got it done.
I believe good programmers could do the same, and maybe more quickly. So you don't need systemd to replace sudo. [1]
NOTE: "Replacement" is in quotes for a reason: YOU SHOULD NOT RUN THIS CODE! It's a proof-of-concept!
This is also why I don't want to hear any complaints about the license.
If you are more than just curious, though, contact me. [2] I'd be happy to keep working on urdo and provide license grants. [3]
