I meant that "how long have you been using" already has a strong correlation to the proficiency (iow I did not mean to suggest adding a new question).

As I personally do not think there is any sane usecase that *must* use core.worktree and/or GIT_WORK_TREE, I took "separate worktree" as "having two or more worktree on the same repository via new-workdir mechanism", but you meant core.worktree. It shows the question is ill-stated that there are confusion even between us.

Wouldn't that be an overkill?
