Seeing that this is the 'base' Loader class, I know that a lot of time we
just declare methods here that raise `NotImplementedError` or just `pass`.
Assuming that this is a way to 'declare' these methods to the child classes, I
understand its need. But combined with a method that returns `None`, where this
`Loader` class is not intended for direct use, is confusing.
