Yes. Because 1) the data are images, not tabular, 2) the data are large and so should be mounted not downloaded.

Selected Answer: B

The main reasons cited include: The data are large image files. The requirement to stream data directly from the source. The as_mount() method is suitable for streaming large datasets without downloading them.
