The truth is, you can still use FreeBSD even with this error message.

When installing, switch to another console and run bsdinstall from there.

When installed, set "debug.acpi.disabled=1" in /boot/loader.conf as said
earlier.

I used FreeBSD 11.2 on the said Dell Inspiron 7352 by suppressing the error
message back in 2018-2019.

I no longer have the Inspiron, and my two HP Spectre x360s (along with one work
ThinkPads with an unlocked BIOS, other one is locked) don't suffer from the
same issue with FreeBSD. Only a few ACPI errors on boot on the two Spectres,
and we obviously know how well ThinkPads work with FBSD (though I don't want a
ThinkPad for myself, and hence why I got HP hardware).

About Dell specifically, I believe most newer (or older) Dell hardware
shouldn't have these "errors", but I can't confirm since I don't have newer
Dell hardware with me. I haven't used Dell hardware newer than Intel Broadwell,
sorry.
