Keep in mind, some of are running tinc on relatively resource-limited systems.  
On routers and other embedded systems, shaving off a few kb really matters.  The 
Linksys WRT54GL, a popular platform for Linux-based routers, has 4MB flash for 
example.  An extra 200-300kb for ncurses can mean the difference between an 
image that can run tinc, and one that doesn't have enough space to include it.

Cheers,
Peter
