Bypassing the Italian peninsula with a landing near Genoa

After Sicily, how would you conduct the Allied invasion of Italy?

Risk a landing near Genoa to cut across northern Italy, isolate German forces farther south, and avoid fighting through every prepared line on the peninsula.

The Italian peninsula favors repeated defensive lines and punishing frontal advances. A deliberately audacious landing much farther north, around Genoa, followed by a drive across the peninsula could bypass that problem. A southern feint would preserve the expected approach before the main force turned north. Success would place Allied forces behind German armies in the south and threaten their supply and retreat routes. Once armor reached the flatter northern Italian plain, it would gain the maneuver room denied by the mountains, although the landing itself would face stronger defenses and less convenient air cover.
