Good point. In fact, when teaching the squat needed to keep the back, neck and head straight, I use the phrase that one should visualize sitting on the toilet. When done correctly, it puts all the strain on the quads, and none on the back or neck muscles. It defeats then most common argument of those who won't get down to the top of the zone, that their back won't allow it.
