That would mean that lstape (or at least the options you're giving it) doesn't require root access. Not everything in /sbin or /usr/sbin requires root access. For example, anyone can execute /sbin/ifconfig, if all they do is display information.
Putting entries into /etc/sudoers doesn't grant root access unless the user prefaces the command they want to issue with sudo. There's no way every command could/would be changed to automatically check /etc/sudoers when being called.
