On the other hand:
bash> cd data/slinktosubofhome
bash> echo hello >../foo.txt
bash> ls ~/data
link
bash> ls ..
data
So cd and pwd don't change to the linked-to directory, but IO
redirections and the ls command do. As does every other non-builtin.
I think it is much more important to have consistency.
