I agree with that part, slathering infrastructure and abstractions on
oneliners (okay, twoliners) is suspect in my book. worktree add,
symoblic ref (really, no need to get lowlevel there, checkout --orphan
does it) done. Tag an empty commit and the sequence gets closer
to a legit oneliner

    git worktree add foo empty; git -C foo checkout --orphan newbranch
