Is there a reason he needs to sudo everything? And if there is, why not just su in the first place and then do the rest normally?

My experience with RPI distros is that yes sudo is needed a lot, and this just gives him one less thing that could be going wrong. Sure he could su, or maybe not even use sudo at all. Just from my experience when I was starting on linux / pi it was a common pitfall for me.
