"cd /.../" is not legal.


I don't think that the OP actually used that; he was just using as a shorthand for an unspecified directory.

   ]$ cd ...
   bash: cd: ...: No such file or directory
   ]$


Not always. ... is a valid name for a file or directory and I'm told that there was a time that games used it as a hidden directory under the directory they were installed in to stash score files. I've never used it as a file name, but there was a time when I had ~/... as a directory, "just because." In fact, you could easily store your help files under ~/...---... if you really wanted to be silly.
