Using Ubuntu absolves the user of personal responsibility?

Well, but the man page explicitly mentions, that plain files can be mounted:

       One further possible type is a mount via the loop device. For  example,
       the command

         mount /tmp/fdimage /mnt -t msdos -o loop=/dev/loop3,blocksize=1024

       will  set  up  the  loop  device  /dev/loop3  to correspond to the file
       /tmp/fdimage, and then mount this device on /mnt.

"to correspond to the file /tmp/fdimage".

It goes on to say:

       If  no  explicit loop device is mentioned (but just an option ‘-o loop’
       is given), then mount will try to find some unused loop device and  use
       that.  

This shows, that normal files can be mounted as well, like so:

  mount /tmp/fdimage /mnt -t msdos -o loop,blocksize=1024

",blocksize=1024" isn't mandatory, but the man page doesn't say this in the
"THE LOOP DEVICE" section.
