Most full-screen programs wrote directly to video memory anyway. It's mainly the ones ported from UNIX that needed an ANSI driver.
Now in the glorious future of 2022, every console app runs on an emulated DEC VTxxx, and if you press "Esc" it can't be sure if that's a real key or part of some control sequence unless it waits a second to find out if more bytes arrive.
