You can trick the Startup Disk Creator to clone non-Ubuntu iso files,
because it is willing to clone 'any' image file with the extension img.
So make a symbolic link, for example

debian-live-11.0.0-amd64-standard.img
$ ls -ltr
total 924676

20.04 iso.

Disk" and "Quit".

It even depends on the name of the source iso how Startup Disk Creator behaves.
If it does not contain "Ubuntu", the window in
