Don't do that. Really.
1) Don't use drive or partition device names such as /dev/sda7.
They are unreliable. Use persistent identifiers such as UUID or
LABEL instead.
In general I agree. For this specific use case of this specific
machine at this specific moment, what I did is reasonable and
proper.
2) The "users" option does not make sense without the "noauto"
option because the filesystem is going to be mounted
automatically at startup, so users do not need to mount it.
That was just one iteration of me vainly attempting to grasp
mount(8).
