It is true that the in the phone you have to remove the battery to insert the card, so maybe this is only temporary (e.g. due to indexing only working on devices mounted at boot time).
There's nothing that should prevent you from hotplugging the sdcard. What I think this means is that Jolla gives the above info just for clueless users who do not know what mount/umount means.
As there is no automatic method to do that before inserting and removing cards it is better to err on the side of caution...

Just like on the Jolla phone where you can easily hot-swap sdcards, you just need to manually umount the fs before removing the card.

Every Android version has a simple button in the settings to unmount the SDCard... I don't know why Jolla has not implemented this simple feature...

Really interested in hearing from the folks that have their tablets their thoughts - good and the bad.

Wasted opportunity. Why not learn from the giants of the past? The N900 unmounted the SD card automatically if you removed the back cover. It had a magnetic sensor for that purpose.

Jolla also has a sensor detecting that the back cover (also known as The Other Half) has been removed. Why not using it?

Oh, sorry, I forgot. The Other Half is there for changing ringtones and desktop wallpapers, not for anything actually useful.

Gasp! Burn the heretic! He is suggesting that Jolla should do something that Android does! Oh no!!!

This is a good idea and should even be simple enough to add it as a service or something. Doesn't apply to the tablet though :-(
