Can you expand on how this improves usability? It's not like content on the drive automatically gets sorted into the correct directories or anything, so you end up with a "Music" directory which is not where the music kept, etc. "Where is my music?" "Ah! It must be in the 'Music' folder!" "Oh, that's empty." "Ah! Maybe it's in *this* 'Music' folder!" "Oh, that's empty too." Frustrating.
If the OS creates content on the card it might make sense for it to create a content-type directory to keep it in. But that should only happen when the content is created, not speculatively when the card is formatted.
Ubuntu desktop does this too of course. So does my Macintosh. And I have never understood why. Those directories have always sat empty on every operating system I've ever used, getting in my way.
