The BSD userland is genuinely more user-friendly - I strongly prefer software with functionality I might actually need, as opposed to every pointless thing somebody could imagine. ;-)
But here's another FreeBSD's advantage: it gives you the choice. Just do "pkg install coreutils", change your $PATH and voila: GNU tools.

It's just preferences, I guess?
