Thumbs up

Palm to forehead. Shoulda read closer.

We have had a number of these posts and most have been unable to get anything other than vesa. You've come further than most. There are also some other forum threads on this.

Although I prefer OpenBSD to FreeBSD and avoid Nvidia when buying hardware, If dri is important the above thread suggests that you can also disable the intel driver and use FreeBSD Nvidia driver. A post in the above link suggests that even that may not solve your problem

Until Mesa gets a full port to FreeBSD, it's abilities with X11 for 3D hardware accelerated graphics and drivers will be fairly much limited to a few GPUs at best, most of which are Nvidia only.
