An FAI will always have more rules to follow (“do not eat the ones with life on them”) and I just don’t see how these would have advantages over a UFAI without those restrictions.
They mostly don’t have life on them, even in the Solar System, intergalactic travel involves more or less “straight shots” without stopovers (nowhere to stop), and the slowdown is negligibly small.
