I am quite sure they also don’t offer USB ports to charge the phone you run in lieu of a build in system
I definitely read an article somewhere where it says that they provide USB power for the tablet/phone.

This article has it:

The Truck will come with a phone mount and convenient USB power to mount your phone or a tablet to the dash.
EDIT: I think that a better criticism is that this thing is just a prototype, still almost two years away from mass production, assuming everything goes right for them. Like, they could have any number of things go wrong (the Trump tariff situation, for one…hard to have any idea where things will be). It could be that they crash into problems trying to get mass production going. It could be that they can’t hit their target price point.
When you run a process under
sudo
, it will be running as the root user. Processes that that process launches will also be running as the root user; new processes run as the same user as their parent process.So internally, no, it won’t result in another invocation of
sudo
. But those processes a dolphin process running as root starts will be running as the root user, same as if you had individually invoked them viasudo
