I don't where you got that idea, volume compression is a function of the file system. Folder/file compression is sometimes done by the operating system but more often by regular application programs.
My on-site backup disks are compressed volumes, on them I have zip, rar, 7z, sfx, iso, tar.gz, cbr, cbz, docx, epub etc etc. All of which I can uncompress with WinRAR (or Peazip or 7zip), to the same or another compressed volume or a regular non-compressed volume. And if I was minded I could install some plugins into my file manager and get it to do them.
