It is there for compatibility for BSD systems so does nothing on non-BSD (for instance Linux).

-s, --stdio
          Accepted but does nothing, for compatibility with BSD
          locate.

Not with the option. We use > for redirection so locate this > save.txt to create a text file with the results of locate this, For stdout and stderr we use >&
