Ever tried a spare partition formatted to an older UDF? Like 2.0x? Or if that is too wonky a spare partition formatted to some FAT, and "burn" an ISO into that, then mounting that ISO later on from whichever target you are on. Mounting ISOs without burning them is universally supported. Only remaining annoyance then is the wasted drive capacity, but that depends on your needs.

I used UDF on USB media for years, and only past tense because I don't have much need of passing files between systems on physical media anymore. Iirc, there were some sharp edges, but it was an overall refreshing experience compared to dealing with FAT or dealing with any other experience. I would recommend UDF based on my own experience.
