your example does work; mine was a counter example.
but in pointing out the nits, i missed the point.
according to the ns(1) man page
[...]The out-
put is in the form of an rc(1) script that could, in princi-
ple, recreate the name space. The output is produced by
reading and reformatting the contents of /proc/pid/ns.
so following fd2path along its merry way down
to the source doesn't help generating such a script.
i could think of cases where it would be a hinderance.
perhaps you want a new program, nsroot that does
what you suggest.
