Syntax error in one line in sudoer file cause total failure

Suppose it did that. There are still errors you can make that render sudo usuable like "chmod 0 /usr/bin/sudo". As a sysadmin you need to be ready for that and be able to operate when sudo fails.
Here is one trick: When you are fiddling around as root on a system, keep an emergency window with a root prompt ready. Don't close this window until you are sure it is not needed. But don't use it until you must. This "extra root window" trick has saved me a lot of grief.
