Cool stuff, lots of really good automation tricks that I haven't seen. I have a similar routine of doing a clean wipe every once in a while and wrote a bunch of scripts to make the process less painful.
One of the more useful ones is a small shell wrapper around homebrew cask that batches installation packages based on category, and one that automates symbolically linking dotfiles using a configuration file.

Which leads me to my second point: How would you go finding all those still relevant dotfiles and folders for settings of programs you still want to use and, with wiping, removing all obsolete ones?
