Imagex dosn't write to a FAT, a work around was used.Today you may try 7-zip to extract install.wim files to a FAT partition.What do we break by removing the hard links? By removing hard links you need double space.The idea is to add more hard links.Imagine a small mSATA or M.2 SSD: 24 GB or 32 GB.One GB space makes a difference there. Did exist back a third party wim reading application? It seems like a similar approach (re-hardlinking winsxs files) has been in use since Vista.A guy called Christian Bering Boegh wrote, starting 2009 a batch file called Winsxslite that has seemingly been used both in Vista and 7.The site is here:though links are not working.Googling for 'winsxslite.zip' and for 'WinsxsLite1.88.zip' should however provide the files.It seems to me like the finddupe can provide the same results in a simpler way, though seemingly the mentioned batch has further 'features'.Wonko.
