Now, I've been wondering: Why would you need to have an Ncurses-based
installer at all? Does it have any considerable advantage over using a
simple interactive shell script?


IMHO, it is more interactive.  :-)

Not doing it with dialog, can imply more code: loops, reads, and cases. Especially when Dragora 3 doesn't want to be subject to a particular shell, unless it's really necessary.

Consider the interactive 'adduser' that some distributions offer, now consider the same adduser script made with dialog(1): how easy it is to add a user, view and select groups.
