Then why does no other part of Emacs set dired-directory, except for
dired itself? Eg M-x shell does not. It has no effect on M-x dired. I
imagine setting default-directory after cd does all that is necessary.

Since this is ancient code from the very first version of eshell,
personally I suspect it is simply a mistake.
