set console="comconsole"
Is that not trivial enough?
Except it is not a telecom equipment 40 years ago. Even at 115200 that
I routinely use on my development systems I feel serial console output
affects verbose boot time and kernel console debugging output. I also
have BIOS console redirection enabled on my systems, and I believe the
default there is also 115200, and even that is pretty slow. I see no
point to stay compatible if it is unusable.
You seem to be missing the point.
You need to make a configuration choice. You. Not the world. You.
Edit your /boot/loader.conf and put in the lines above.
Then be happy.

PS: a recent CISCO ASA fireware defaults to 9600 8n1. Same as a lot of
equipment.
