Do I have to sand or is there some magic I’m not aware of?

@CaptainFlintlockFinn more experienced printers than me have suggested looking at exposure and lift times to try and minimise the need for supports while keeping the geometry stable. Although more for square shaped but it might also apply here.
If it wasn't in translucent resin I might suggest splitting the model as well.
