Am I correct to understand that your "git fsck" would fail because these HEAD refs used by other stale worktrees are pointing at missing objects? What do you mean by "expired"? "Even though I want to keep using them, Git for some reason decided to destroy them." or "I no longer use them but kept them lying around."? If the latter, I wonder "worktree prune" to remove the admininstrative information for them would unblock you?
