I was curious about MPQ format and found this tool: https://github.com/eagleflo/mpyq

Maybe you can use it to decompress some files and assess how much disk space you can save using deduplication at filesystem level.

If it's worth the effort (1 mean, going from 1TiB to 100-200 Gib) I would consider coding the reassembly part. It can be done by a "script" fist, then can be "promoted" to a FUSE filesystem if needed.
