Agree. The best curses interfaces make liberal use of highlighting and color, rather than box drawing characters, which take up too much real estate. Besides lazygit, which rocks, I would even point to the old DOS versions of MS Word, which had popups that were information dense but readable.

Color can be tricky too. Colorblind or bad contrast. Terminals do bold, italic, underline and strikethrough.
