To add a couple of issues with Dynamic Libraries, and why someone would choose Static Libraries:

• The dynamic library being updated can break a program due to a change in the library. Think a math call goes from divide(a,b) to divide(a,b, precision), so now the old call doesn’t exist.
• Some languages don’t have a “stable” way to talk to itself. This means that if you have a program and library compiled with compiler version A, then later compile an update to the library with compiler version B, the program won’t know how to talk to the library correctly, even though the call is still there.

Like a lot of things, there are tradeoffs, and there is no universal correct choice.

The beauty of Linux at home, you get to choose what works best for you.

Also, you can configure sudo to prompt every time if you really want.

I was on a system that was configured that way for “security”, so I would just ‘sudo bash’ which is obviously much safer /s.
