Indeed. The name doesn't follow the conventions of other commands in Windows/Powershell at all. And it is inconsistente too. "sudo" stands for "super user do", but in Windows the notion of super user is called administrator. This will likely also cause confusion with people googling for "sudo" and getting to *nix related pages instead.
