That's correct you cannot use 2-sided tape because it is an adhesive tape.

Brings up an interesting thought - we have often in the past used a product (I'm sure it's sold as a tape) that we call booger tape (for obvious reasons if you have ever used it). You put it on a surface, then peel off the brown paper tape and leave the adhesive behind. Which part is the tape, the paper or the adhesive? I would say the paper, since you call it adhesive tape - that would be redundant if the tape was the adhesive. A tape implies to me a continuous length of something, like a tape measure, cassette tape, etc. not something sticky.
