Dear angry user, it's matter of configuration. You can compile curl/wget
without a feature, you can disable it in system wide configuration file,
a user can do the same in his own configuration file or explicitly in
arguments of the utility.

We can discuss what's ideal default option, you can talk about it with your
operating system vendor or you can do it yourself (yes, Gentoo rules :).
