Maybe it is just me, but to cut 'n' paste one complete line
("deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/mkusb/ppa/ubuntu bionic main")
seems easier ("a bit more user friendly")
than to need to cut the line up into three pieces, and paste them
individually into the three fields.

And I think it was even easier: I believe it was only necessary to
cut 'n' paste "ppa:mkusb/ppa" (which was all that was necessary with
the  add-apt-repository  method).

Also, a first time user might not know right off the bat, what should
be entered into "Distribution" and especially "Section(s)".
(Possibly might not know what "URI" was...)

I've been doing this sort of thing since 2010, and I didn't know what
was wanted!
