Here’s a little off topic.
I didn’t know that the comment told about EFIFS (it’s called EFI filesystem drivers) from your link of reddit . I researched it a bit, this may support multiple different filesystems and is based on GRUB2 driver.
systemd-boot developer already planned to load any driver into EFI stub, that I suspect.
See: https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/15617
Archlinux will plan to support for systemd-boot reading filesystems with EFI driver or not:

systemd-boot is able to read common filesystems (ext4, btrfs etc.) (since 250).
