ESXi and SD-Cards

I read this KB about SD card  https://kb.vmware.com/s/article/85685

and I know new esxi storage lay-out has changed and has added new part ESX-OS DATA . As I understood the main reason we have to immigrate from SD-Card to disk such as ssd disk , nvme disk , ...for  install esxi is for the size of OS-DATA partition is increasing and SD-CRAD size is not suitable for it and the other write has been increased in new version of ESXi in this partition (OS-DATA) that SD card cannot tolerate it correctly. 

but want to know Is that possible use SD-card with 32G and create a scratch partition on shared storage for ESX - OS data ?

migrate vmware tools such as this KB to another path instead of OS-DATA:

https://kb.vmware.com/s/article/83376

 migrate core dump to other path 

If we do above . Can install ESXi on SD-card with 32G space ?

Please mark helpful or correct if my answer resolved your issue.
