This seems like a rarely ocuring issue in npm itself
https://github.com/npm/npm/issues/20143\I am not able to replicate it, but please try to run
npm cache clean -fAnd try installation again in empty folder. Or remove everything you have in your current app folder if there is nothing you need to persist.

Somehow just cleaning the cache is not enough, need to remove package-lock.json and then it installed nicely.
Thank you Jan.
