Comment (by hinder):

 One could imagine that in future, SimFactory might want to execute
 multiple commands in parallel.  For example, it might be faster to purge
 simulations simultaneously.  In that case, calling chdir from SimFactory
 would not be thread-safe.  I agree with Erik: the CWD of a process should
 never be changed.
