I've installed "xorriso-dd-target" in a virtual machine, tried it, and I

My main concern is about users who not unsure enough. :))
I'm Debian's end user from Potato and I still double check the device
today. :)
Actually there must be no other filesystems than FAT and ISO 9660.
Their presence on the USB stick is not mandatory. (Except with option
-look_for_iso which overrides the presence of a rejectable filesystem
by the presence of an ISO 9660.)
How about this:

sdc : NO : usb+ has_ext4- : Intenso Ultra Line
NO CANDIDATE FOR TARGET DEVICE AMONG THE GIVEN NAMES !
A suitable candidate must be a memory card or connected via USB
but must not be an optical drive, floppy, loop device, RAM device
or disk partition. It must not have filesystems other than FAT
or ISO 9660. More reasons exist to reject a candidate.
The reasons are given briefly by words which end by "-", like
has_ext4- or not_usb-. See the list in man xorriso-dd-target .
Overall available devices:

Looks perfect to me, I'd just add two words: "on it", to be definitively
explicit to this sentence:
"It must not have filesystems other than FAT or ISO 9660."
I'd like it becomes:
"It must not have filesystems other than FAT or ISO 9660 on it."
Kind regards,
