Why would you want to? Just don't enable it from /etc/rc.conf
and you'll be fine. If you need it, you can always enable it
later. Many machines run just fine without inetd. It all depends
what you wanna do.

No. With inetd, you can also turn regular filters into network
aware programs (sort of). And not every network service is always
needed all the time. Having a deamon for each of those seldom used
services hanging around is just wastful.

-cpghost.
