Image in the data sheet is correct. The 1st reply on stack exchange is also correct. The mounting bolt will make a shorted secondary turn only if both ends of the bolt are connected to chassis to complete the current path. If one end of the bolt is connected to chassis then there is no current path.
Edit: Toroidal transformers are used when you need low flux leakage compared to an E-I core. Audio amplifiers or sensitive instrumentation that covers audio frequencies might use toroidal cores to avoid additional magnetic screening that might be required for a traditional E-I core. The disadvantages of toroidal cores are the increased manufacturing cost and a higher inrush current. Most toroidal mains transformers have a pair of 120V primary windings so there is no reason why they wouldn't be used in 120V equipment.
