I voted for that question because it would be nice to offer a btrfs alternative, while still supporting the standard for regular people who don't care about open source, just about working solutions.
So, you've voted for an answer explicitely stating :
Support SDHC (up to 32GB, no exFAT licensing).
With a user installable package, support:
* >32 GB formatted with btrfs, and optional LUKS encryption.
* If possible, paid-for exFAT license package to support SDXC.
So Jolla listened to your (and other) votes which selected to have no exFat licencing (as default), being a majority among TJC votes.

By the way, i see in my TJC account that I've voted in 03/12/2014 for the 3rd answer, asking SDXC support in Jolla Tablet, i.e., "Support 128GB SDXC cards out of the box and pay the license fee". My wish was the minority one, but I'm ok with this outcome as the majority of Sailfish community thinks differently.

So be careful reading and voting in TJC. I've voted for exFAT support as default, you've voted for no-exFAT as default. Now you are complaining about no-exFAT support, while I'm not. That's funny, no ?
