I would have thought this would work:

python -m os -c 'for root, dirs, files in os.walk("."): if len(dirs + files) == 1: print(root)'

Unfortunately doesn't 
But did show up a small doc-bug:

This fact is not documented in 
$ man python
but is documented in 
$ python -h

Anyways...

I thought when one signs up for python one has to sign an affidavit
saying:
"I shall not write one-liners\n" * 100
