Get rid of "Cursor" checkbox in Sculpt mode
If uncheck the Cursor checkbox the brush (blue circle) won't be visible while sculpting. I can't imagine why somebody might want to hide that circle. And it's might be frustrating if user unchecked it by accident.
And i'm not saying to remove settings (color, opacity, ect.) of the Brush circle. Just show/hide checkbox.

some people use a cintiq or equivalent and don't need a cursor. perfect example of why we shouldn't just assume everyone uses Blender the same way we do and start adding/removing things without considering the wide ramifications.
Please see this: "And i'm not saying to remove settings (color, opacity, ect.) of the Brush circle.". If someone needs to hide it, for whatever reason, they can just by making it completely transparent.
or.... you could ignore it.
Basically, we have two functions that do the same (hide/show brush). But one of them very easy to activate by accident and the other one only by purpose.
No, they don't do the same thing. You, the user, can use them for the same end result, but they are not designed in that purpose.
Transparency requires more clicks to set up and is a slider, meant to be a subsetting of how you want to display your cursor.
Enabling the cursor is a quick access parent settings. It's point is to be a one-click switch for everything. It is fast, simple and binary.
It's like proposing to remove the disabling buttons on modifiers like Subdivision Surface because you achieve the same thing by setting their subdivision to zero. Or removing Constraint's disable button because again, you achieve the same by setting their weights to zero.
Well no thank you.
You can't fool-proof every single part of the UI without compromising efficiency for average user. Especially not the case of "one could mistakenly click this so let's remove it". Anything can be clicked by mistake.
