"an anti-pattern" and "encouraging a bad habit" are subjective non-arguments as long as they fail to answer why.

With or without the helper you still write this code:

    prev = os.getcwd()
    os.chdir(SDKPATH)
    ...
    os.chdir(prev)

And because os.chdir() doesn't do anything high-level, there is no place for the multithreading warning.
