Oh, you're talking about filesystems again? :-)
FAT has its roots in the '70's, originally for floppy disks, before the first *5* _mega-byte_ ST-506 storage disks for personal computers had their genesis. FAT and the PC BIOS are relics retarding the advance of technology. Divorcing yourself from dependence on them is the smart plan, at least with TB-sized storage media.
I do not dispute that. However, as we have seen this disk absolutely refuses to be partitioned so far - and so I have not been able to perform any formatting in any file system at all.
