It's not about Ubuntu, but rather about running under an unprivileged user. In most cases it means that we're not in a container.
It's supposed that devs either run these commands under a privileged user or use sudo when it's needed.
But if you feel it's better to add sudo explicitly, please amend the original instruction instead.

Yes, this is not Ubuntu specific, rather it covers most Debian use cases. The goal was just to make a sure a developer can copy-paste commands to install - right now this is not the case.
It's highly unusual for any *nix distro for a user to run a terminal under a priveledged user by default. At the same time, using su before executing a series of commands is less secure because sudo offers more granular control over user permissions. But a developer cannot just prefix the commands in the doc with sudo, e.g. this doesn't work
sudo echo 'deb [trusted=yes] http://deb.nil.foundation/ubuntu/ all main' >>/etc/apt/sources.listand has to be changed to:
sudo bash -c "echo 'deb [trusted=yes] http://deb.nil.foundation/ubuntu/ all main' >>/etc/apt/sources.list"I'll change the orginal instructions
