Because a pretty big portion of Mac users aren't exactly computer savvy. Same with Windows, a ton of people don't know what the command prompt is. But if you are using Linux then you pretty much have to know what the terminal is. :p My point was that even though sudo is used in both OSX and Linux kernels, it's not exactly "made popular" by OSX.

(lol, when I said "you" I meant Mac users in general, not you specifically. :p )
 
Unix is made popular through Linux, but more so through Mac OSX.

Sudo is made far more popular through Linux because the average Mac user does not need to use the terminal whereas pretty much all Linux users do.

Simples.
