Which is because Android assigns the drive ID based on the drive, not what's on it. You can't just simple clone a drive.

Once again, and as I have explained many, many times already. This is because of Androids Storage Access Framework.
It has NOTHING to do with how your drive is formatted, it has to do with that fact that (at least as of Android 6.x) apps can NOT write to external drives unless they ask permission. KODI DOES NOT DO THIS!!.
The only exception is that apps have permission to write to their folder on the drive. Once you plug in the drive and open an app (in that order) it will create a app folder. For Kodi the path would be /your_drive/Android/data/org.xbmc.kodi/, Kodi has full permission to this location, but no other. You have to use this location for your files if you want Kodi to have full access.
