Because vfat is used by a lot of current non-Windows users for removable
media / external harddisks (it's the only game in town for a fs without
uid's; e.g. making it possible to move disks around without messing
around with permissions). That, and a lot of non-Windows consumer
electronics, like cameras and audio/video players, use it.
