I propose that we add /sbin and /usr/sbin to the path for normal users

assumes the user is root because it lives in /sbin is fundamentally
broken. The LSB doesn't mandate this (at least, not anywhere I can see),
so I propose that we just do it.
Anyone opposed to such an action?
Not at all,

Isn't that more or less the same reason most windows users login as
administrator - The convenience?
Note: I know the security risk in the two examples are not in the same
ball-park, so there's no need to lecture me on that.
I'm merely speaking of convenience and how it sometimes makes it feel
right to do the wrong thing.
