I assume that the main reason for people not wanting to add
dependencies is because it complicates bootstrapping guix for new
platforms (which I don't understand well enough yet). I don't think
that you can build a gnu system that doesn't rely on ncurses or an
alternative implementation. guile-ncurses (0.7MB) and guile-json
(0.1MB) are hardly large enough to warrant a fuss otherwise :)
