There's a bug report concerning this from 2014.

https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=745381

In that thread our very own Brian P. states:

 It would appear that on Wheezy it is necessary for '--no-auto-detect'
 to be added to the apt-cdrom command to get sources.list written to.

 On Jessie 'sudo apt-cdrom -d /media/usb0 add' works with or without
 this option.

I guess the above holds true for Stretch and Buster, buster (but it's only a
guess)?
