Why request sudo to install Playwright with Chromium?

[bodograumann]

Summary

I tried to integrate my play functions into vitest with the suggested command:

npx storybook add @storybook/experimental-addon-test

I got this far:

Verifying @storybook/experimental-addon-test
Installing @storybook/experimental-addon-test@^8.3.6
Adding '@storybook/experimental-addon-test' to the "addons" field in .storybook/main.ts
Running postinstall script for @storybook/experimental-addon-test

› Installing dependencies:
  @vitest/browser@^2.0.0, playwright

› Configuring Playwright with Chromium (this might take some time):
  npx playwright install chromium --with-deps

Why does the script request sudo access?
Usually this is not needed to setup playwright (I am using it fine with the test runner currently)
Maybe there should be a prompt whether I want to install something globally on my system?

Unfortunately this way the only option for me was to Ctrl-C abort.
