Does this even matter, if you can copy/mount files over a network?
What are potential use cases where you'd want to support those additional file systems? External drives?

I just ran into a use case yesterday. I wanted to copy some files from either my Mac or my Windows machine onto the MicroSD card for my SteamDeck, which is ext4.
I wanted to just plug in the card and copy files, but couldn’t.
Interesting, ok.
I don't even want to say "Use NTFS, doesn't everything support it?" because I'm not even sure that's the best solution for an SD card.
Maybe with their new FSKit API [1], someone can build a compatibility layer for it.

The best solution is to add support for EXT4 to mac and windows.
