Such question does not make sense if the disk is GPT partitioned which

And what is supposed to happen if the disk has an existing MBR and existing
partitions?
Besides which.. Do you want FreeBSD to overwrite the MBR? Thus erasing
grub when someone is attempting to install FreeBSD alongside Linux?
If you do not want GRUB, you must remove GRUB and revert to a proper MBR.
