Thats not the point. The use case is different:
  1. User buys "an SD card" (doesn't know differences)
  2. User uses it on his laptop and other devices
  3. User now wants the files from SD card on Jolla, too
  4. Jolla can't read it because its exFAT
  5. Jolla tablet suggests to re-format...


The suggestion that Jolla should format the card to a file system that's hopefully compatible to Windows, OSX and a number of cameras, ebook-readers and other gadgets only works if the Jolla tablet is the first device a user will plug the card into after he bought it. That will very likely not be the case.
