There's no such thing as a 'USB live image'; the image is the .iso, it
can be written to anything. I considered the USB part to be implicit in
the second clause - you can only 'correctly write' an overlay to a
USB-ish medium, after all, and it has the advantage of still being
correct if some other type of medium that supports overlay shows up in
future...
