If FreeBSD was a desktop OS this might be reasonable, but it’s simply not. This is akin to complaining that the executive director of the Linux Foundation (I assume) does not run Kubernetes on their toaster oven.
Look into a "Recording" model Les Paul (or the newer "Iridium" model if you don't care about the low-impedance electronics) - they have exactly that. The main complaint is usually the weight though - of the two I have one is 11lbs and one is 15lbs (!!!).
