Hi, the sudo-rs team decided not to implement this "feature"

Title:
  Insults not insulting me

Status in rust-sudo-rs package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  I did sudo visudo and put this

  Defaults        insults

  
  in between 

  Defaults        secure_path="/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:>
  Defaults        insults
  # This fixes CVE-2005-4890 and possibly breaks some versions of kdesu
  # (#1011624, https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=452532)
  Defaults        use_pty

  but it is not insulting me with lines from Holy Grail like it did on
  Zorin OS 18 based on Ubuntu 24 Noble Numbat.

  I suspect this is because Ubuntu made a change to the Sudo, turning it
  from C code to Rust code

  I dont have a clue i only know a tiny bit of python
