Overwrite opaque pixels with transparent ones when compositing

[VendoAU]

Question about an existing feature

What are you trying to achieve?

I want to place an image with transparency on top of another, but cut through the original image so it is still fully transparent.
I looked through the blend modes and I couldn't figure out how to do this without creating another image to use as a mask.

When you searched for similar issues, what did you find that might be related?

This was somewhat related, but I couldn't find any cutout method in the current version: #1016

Please provide a minimal, standalone code sample, without other dependencies, that demonstrates this question

const a = await sharp("A.png").toBuffer();
const b = await sharp("B.png").toBuffer();

const c = await sharp(b)
    .composite([{ input: a, left: 0, top: 0 }])
    .toFile("C.png");

Please provide sample image(s) that help explain this question

A:

B:

A and B combined (I want the center to be transparent like this):

Did you see the dest-in blend? This can be used to "cut out" one image from another.

await sharp("B.png")
  .composite([{ input: "A.png", left: 0, top: 0, blend: "dest-in" }])
  .toFile("C.png");

Yes, but I don't think that will help
This is what the result is:
