I am fine with that format, though...

This is not exactly true. The TEST_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY setting does not
leak. t0000 sets $TEST_DIRECTORY (which it must, so the sub-scripts can
find test-lib.sh and friends), and then TEST_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY uses that
as a default if it is not explicitly set.

The rest of your rewrite looks correct.
