Boring semantics. Windows can run it. That's backwards compatibility.
NTFS is neither crappy or obsolete. Nor is ReFS. exFAT is crappy, but not obsolete. FAT32 is crappy and obsolete. UDF is well, UDF.
I think that's all of the on-disk formats Windows supports OOTB. But you can FUSE if you want more.
> device driver support isn't that great since it relies on vendors a lot still
As does Linux. Who do you think contributes those drivers to the kernel? Linus himself?
