Hoisting /tmp cleaning before most (any?) new uses seems sensible.

Reads solid to me, a few remarks inline.

'! -path .' is '-mindepth 1', if you prefer that to match -maxdepth 1.

\ is not needed here.

rm still runs on mktemp failure, which is fine as -f ensure zero-exit,
logically it reads like oversight, though, so I'd gate both commands:

	tmpdir=$(mktemp ...) && {
		find ... |
			xargs
		rm ... &
	}
