That looks incredibly not OK. You're doing something unusual, and you are going to have to deal with the consequences of that. This may include running afoul of various things like AppArmor that are restricting access to specific directory trees, which you are no longer in. I can't imagine what benefit you think you're deriving from this convoluted setup, but whatever it is, I hope it's worth the pain you're going to experience, trying to track down all of the things you've broken. (You've also forgotten the sticky bit on your mounted directory.)
