I looked into doing this using a very simple variant of the command:

(defun org-cut-subtree-with-confirmation (&optional n)
  "Cut the current subtree into the clipboard with prompt.
Like `org-cut-subtree', but ask for confirmation before killing the
subtree."
  (interactive "p")
  (when (yes-or-no-p "Really cut current subtree?")
    (funcall-interactively #'org-cut-subtree n)))

However, unless we change the Org defaults (which I see no reason to),
this new command will need to be used by users who are specifically
seeking for such functionality.

As you see, this thread got no replies from other people interested in
the same functionality for over a month (Rudolf was interested in
something more generic).

Considering how simple the command is, I now think that the interested
users can trivially implement it themselves (as you did). I feel that
there is not much benefit adding such a command to Org mode itself.
