Are you suggesting something like this?:

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(defun +org-capture-read (&optional arg)
 "completing read interface for org-capture template selection.
ARG is passed to `org-capture'."
 (let (parent)
   (when-let* ((templates
                (mapcar (lambda (template)
                          (let* ((keys (car template))
                                 (parentkeys (car parent)))
                            (if (= (length template) 2)
                                (progn (setq parent template) 
                                nil)
                              (cons (concat (when (and parentkeys
