AFAIK, it isn't. Every window, except optionally the bottom one, must
have a statusline; similarly, in a vertical split, there is a one-column
separator between the vertically split windows.

You could (though I don't recommend it) link the StatusLine and
StatusLineNC groups to the Ignore group: the statusline would still be
there, but it would look like an empty line.


The advantage of having a separator line is so you know where one window
ends and the next one begins. Otherwise you might try to hit j or <Down>
in the upper half and be surprised when you cannot reach the text in the
lower half.
