> can't start shipping SD cards formatted with btrfs until Windows supports it out of the box

3rd parties can write drivers for Windows, you know. A small, read-only FAT partition on a USB stick or SD card could contain the installable drivers necessary to read/write the rest of the disk.

However, that's unnecessary. The best option for a universal file system is UDF. Windows, Mac, and Linux all have full read/write support.
