I don't know. Perhaps you could have a go yourself and tell us?

My guess - and that's all it is - is that it's because the storage card uses the FAT file system, whereas internal memory uses a more sophisticated Unix file system. Perhaps collections use some "attribute" of the file system which isn't available on FAT? As I say, that's just a guess on my part.

Perhaps, though, you might like to dig into it more deeply and discover what the reason is.
