It's not meaningless spam. You are just failing to understand what people are
trying to tell you.

You don't have to newfs a file system after the code was added for that
filesystem to be dirpref "enabled." If your kernel has the code in it, then all
of your UFS file systems, even if you newfs-ed them years ago, are
dirpref-enabled.

Perhaps you should actually read the answers you've been given, instead of
dismissing them as "meaningless spam."
