FoxTrot displays the result of the mdutil -s command line, for each user-visible volume; whether this command work correctly or not on macOS 11 is beyond my knowledge.
User-writable data is now (macOS 11) stored on a distinct volume, as the boot volume is now read-only; but this is hidden to the the user, who sees a unified virtual volume containing things stored on either the system volume or the data volume. Maybe mdutil reports unexpected values because of this? Anyway, if you did not disable Spotlight indexing from FoxTrot's preferences (entering your admin password), then FoxTrot can't have altered Spotlight indices. Or, if you have successfully disabled it from FoxTrot's preference pane, then re-enabling it should also work, as far as I know.
