        Per NIST SP 800-57, EC curves less than 224 should be disallowed since 2013, and curves less than 256 should be disallowed since 2030.

        As EC usage in TLS is relative new, almost all TLS implementations default to the NIST P-256 or stronger curves. Disable curves less than 256 bits should cause no issues.
