Furries run a lot of core internet IT: https://thespinoff.co.nz/internet/11-01-2022/who-runs-the-internet-furries

Oh, of course! I think I was trying to overthink it.

No worries. When I saw the image on Mastodon I thought I did not get it but still looks funny.

"RunAs" is apparently the Windows equivalence of sudo in Linux.
Administrator in Windows == root in Linux.

administrator in windows != root, it's more like user account in sudoers file (but without password auth) processes don't start out with admin rights under administrator accounts on windows, they still need to request the user to elevate (unless uac is off)
