It is required under UEFI. Fat16 and 32 are the only recognized file system formats used by UEFI firmware, so you have to have a UEFI system partition using that filesystem. If Microsoft can patent troll people over it, technically that means there is no way to prepare a system for UEFI booting unless running Microsoft software to create a fat partition, and write to it.
Which would be stupendous bullshit.
