The card is GPT with a 16 MB Fat32 partition to move defective blocks and the second partition is "other". That certainly works for some time.

Also a tray is not any harder, really you just need to use a eject tool that comes in any modern driver kit nowadays.
To get to the tray, I would first have to remove the cover - of course you can do that, but why?

EDIT: just wanted to say also I do side with you on the swap it once if you need the space though, most of my devices have 512GB microsd cards as they are so cheap now.
If I really need something external, then I use USB OTG, which even works with 4 TB NTFS formatted USB hard disks.
