Practically that's 4 lines of setrlimit() code vs 4 lines of chroot()/chdir()
code, so what's the problem? We can do this, we can do that, and we
can replace this with that at any time, so it really doesn't matter. Or
if you think it does, please let me know why.

To some extent you are right, but I don't agree with the "triangular"
part.

Could you please provide some arguments? The more technical/practical they
are, the better.
It is possible you are right and we're just missing something important, so
let's discuss it. Seriously.
