UNIX (so FreeBSD) never had "standard graphical environment" or "graphical
environment" at all.
Xorg is standard in FreeBSD and most unices for graphics hardware support.
There are thousands and more programs available that uses Xorg, including
tens of "graphical environments", and everyone is free to select any of
them if needed. Or none of them if not needed.
Is it that bad to allow people control their computer and willingly choose
what to use?
