On ncdu v1.19, most sizes of files are incorrect. Probably folders too as a result. The values shown are significantly smaller than seen by other tools.
For example, let's say I have a "500mb" pax archive.
On linux: 500mb
In ISPF: 500mb
In ls: 500mb
In ncdu: 182mb
Likewise, a 103kb text file becomes 20kb in ncdu.
A 17mb mp4 file becomes 8.3mb in ncdu.
I can only imagine how it gets these numbers, but the relative sizes of the files is mostly intact. The pax is still larger than the text file for example. But the ratio of size difference seems inconsistent. Maybe block size is counted wrong?
