This is a common trick. When SD cards first went beyond 2GB there are some people that used the 2GB FAT16 format with larger block sizes to achieve 4GB. It worked on some devices. Similarly the FAT32 with larger block sizes can achieve 64GB but it block is really large and some devices may not have enough allocated room to read a block into memory. It is likely to work with the caveat of wasted space on the device.
