As mentioned by @svartkanin on archlinux#3950, given we now have a way for the user to explicitly specify if they want to install to the removable location, having a fallback like this seems undesirable. On top of that, as mentioned by @correctmost on the same PR, the code that said PR introduced was bugged and would always raise an exception anyways.
