No, but users do.  And users don't care what Emacs's actual cwd is
(except that I am daily thankful that Emacs doesn't chdir because that
means that Emacs's cwd is never on the USB key that I want to umount!)

So you don't care but you do care?

--chdir solves a problem for current users of session restarted Emacs. Not all problems, but enough to get by. You are still just arguing for enhancements, not that chdir is bad. If you don't care (except when you do in the USB case), why do you think removing it is such a good idea? If someone wants enhancements to session restore, please implement it then.
