No such implication exists.  Your claim is baseless.

If sudo WERE included in the base system, the default configuration COULD 
be setup to mimic the very simplistic behavior of su.  Hence, you would 
have to do absolutely nothing, it would only save work.

I agree that if sudo is to be called as su (via symlink) as someone else 
pointed out, then it should behave the same way, but that's a simple thing 
to do even if sudo doesn't currently support it.  I don't know, I only use 
su long enough to install my "must haves" like sudo, then never again.
