Many MP3/Video players surely do not run an embedded Linux.

Besides, it doesn't matter what "many" devices run if the talk is about defaults, or even about ripping the working, proven code out of the mainline. (Well, that suggestion was absurd.)

The other big user I can think of are digital cameras, but (a)
normally most users read from them and then delete the pictures,

I use my SD cards not only in the camera but also as generic mobile storage with laptops and media player.

There is no way for software to detect that a medium is going to be used with a 8.3-only device exclusively.
