It does not work. .deb file is ar archive. It is also debian package. How do you know if I want to see it as a package or as a archive? How do you identify file types, anyway? Same happens for .tar.gz. uservfs does cd foo.deb#uar vs. cd foo.deb#udeb and cd foo.tgz#utar vs. cat foo.tgz#ugz -- 64 bytes from 195.113.31.123: icmp_seq=28 ttl=51 time=448769.1 ms
