I dont support removing sudo either but yum install sudo isnt a hard thing to do. if you are going to jump operating systems just because of this then thats overreacting IMO
Actually, it's not hard to download the packages and install from source. (./configure ; make ; make install isn't much harder than "yum install" and it's more likely to work.)
However, the whole reason I prefer Linux over Solaris is that Linux comes with a good userspace, not because the Linux kernel is all that good. (The big thing Linux has going for it is driver support.) As the things that I expect to be "just there" start to disappear, the advantages of sticking with Linux go away.
