4kB is also the minimum file size on Linux, so I imagine a similar issue could exist on Android.

The Gmail app on Android is 150MiB in size.

Android traditionally puts resources into a compressed archive, though, so by simply using an archive for storage, Google may be avoiding the 4k size problem.
