For v1.5.1 an account that won't perform any action (including transfer) you don't need to delegate CPU/NET. Bare minimum amount for new account is 3 kbytes with the current reward for newaccount which is 1.5 kb (article from Dan). Which require the creator to buy 1608 bytes.
--stake-net="0.0000 EOS" --stake-cpu="0.0000 EOS" --buy-ram-bytes=1608
Results:
RAM used 2996 bytes / quota: 1596 bytes
In this state, the account can receive EOS, but cannot transfer it back. You can always delegate sufficient amount of bandwidth to make the account functioning.
