  | Is there rcvar setting to skip the locate.updatedb weekly job?

Yes.

  | man rc.conf does not seem to have one.

It doesn't go there.

  | /etc/weekly checks this:
  |
  |     if checkyesno rebuild_locatedb; then

So it is in /etc/weekly.conf (and the default is in
/etc/defaults.weekly.conf) and is documented
in weekly(5)   (aka weekly.conf(5))

Whether it is important enough to run every week depends
upon your needs.  That's why it can be configured.
