I'm confused. The context was starting from a pkgbase 14.3 . But:

https://cgit.freebsd.org/src/commit/usr.sbin/freebsd-update?id=cf1aba2857

freebsd-update: refuse to operate on a pkgbase system

FreeBSD-update is not compatible with packaged base.

releng/14.3 has the same as:

https://cgit.freebsd.org/src/commit/usr.sbin/freebsd-update?h=releng/14.3&id=094a5146df
