Drive BMS in lieu of SMART Tests - is iXsystems malicious or incompetent?

Using smartctl, BMS appears to be enabled on my SATA HDDs:

# camcontrol devlist
<ST20000NM007D-3DJ103 SN06>        at scbus0 target 0 lun 0 (ada0,pass0)
<TOSHIBA MG10ACA20TEY GG03>        at scbus2 target 0 lun 0 (ada1,pass1)
...
# smartctl -c /dev/ada0
=== START OF READ SMART DATA SECTION ===
General SMART Values:
Offline data collection status:  (0x82)	Offline data collection activity
					was completed without error.
					Auto Offline Data Collection: Enabled.

This is Seagate Exos X20 20 TB; same result from Toshiba MG10 20 TB at ada1, or from WD Red 12 TB (WD12EFAX) in another system.
