Wasn't some updated spec going to allowing UEFI booting from NTFS?

Subject: [MDT-OSD] NTFS USB Booting into UEFI?

I've got some HP Elite x2 1012 tablets we're imaging with USB sticks. We picked 
up some new Kingston MobileLite G4 USBs that have slots for sim cards. I've 
formatted them as NTFS and have the tablets booting into Legacy mode. At boot, 
the tablets show the USB as UEFI. I can boot and deploy the image without any 
issue. It formats the drive with UEFI.

How can this happen? I thought I needed FAT 32 to do this with a USB? I'm not 
complaining, it just seems like it shouldn't be possible.
