Lol, the Windows CLI doesn't support it natively either, afaik. You need to decompress the tarball first but since 7z CLI can do stdout/stdin, you can just pipe the decompressed tarball to another instance of 7z.
I think direct extration of compressed tarball with p7zip is something specific to the Posix 7z port.
The tar.xz packages are fine. It's just the instructions that need clarification/updating.
OT
Curious though, given /mnt/us/ is FAT32, do *nix permissions even apply? I thought FAT32 partitions just get assigned Linux permissions upon mounting and you can't change individual file folder permission. I remember having to manually edit /etc/fstab on Mint so I can write to shared NTFS/FAT32 partitions on my dual-boot laptop.
