It can be wrapped in save-restriction and save-excursion for times when it is used for temporary effect, e.g. to find the column of the marker position.

save-excursion or save-current-buffer don't counteract
switch-to-buffer, because it affects the UI selected buffer. You might
be right about the widen part, not sure.
