You may be undermining your own argument for inclusion of a new
--dissociate option by citing the aliased "recursive" option.

git-clone's --recursive-submodules was added (see ccdd3da6) for
disambiguation long after --recursive; and not the other way around
with --recursive being more convenient or easier to remember or spell
than --recursive-submodules. The implication of ccdd3da6 is that
--recursive-submodules is favored over --recursive (and perhaps the
latter may some day be deprecated).
