Perhaps for an interactive tool, intended mainly to be run in a
terminal. But nmbug-status is not such a tool (at least, that was not
why I wrote it). It's run non-interactively in a git hook to generate a
web page.
I'm not sure how important the interactive use case is, but I don't want
to make nmbug-status less robust in order to conform to some abstract
ideal.
One approach would be to enable certain "interactive" features via a
command line argument.
