No ext4 support for the micro SD

I have a 64GB micro SD card that I formatted to ext4 and works without any problem in my LG GPad 8.3 Android 4 tablet and Linux computer.

I tried it in my Z1C, but it tells me the SD is damaged.

When is Sony going to add ext4 support for the micro SD port?

It can't be that hard, as Android is based on Linux and Linux has support for ext4 for several years now.

Too bad I got the "standard" response from them. Format in FAT. Well, I try to avoid using filesystems that are flawed by patents. Is there any way to get the development team to work on this? It can't be that hard, as the phone should already have ext4 support.
