Found vulnerabilities faster? Rewritten it in a safer language? Made a safer doas-like subset compilation target? Made it harder to trick a single person by having more eyes on code reviews?

The only valid point is your last one. It's not only about having more eyes either, but also backup eyes for when the main eyes are unavailable.

All the other things you mentioned are just things you personally wish for but may very well be undesirable to the project.

> but may very well be undesirable to the project.

That would be a valid point of you actually said it would be and why, not that it may be. It may also be desirable. Now what? Would the project benefit from more maintainers because there may be desirable improvements or would it not because nothing may be desirable, it's literally fully secure and feature complete?

How big and how much work do you think is occurring in sudo? Try guessing the churn for last month. You are probably underestimating it by a factor of 100x.

Well, if other projects with a glut of devs are a sign, probably integrate AI into it somehow
