Would this type of backsplash tile not require grout?

I’m looking at this particular backsplash tile which is unusual in that there’s really no gaps between pieces:

I see no way that grout could be squeezed in there. Will it simply be installed ungrouted?

Water is good at finding its way into gaps and if you check the Q & A some other users point out it should be grouted, and they did.

I once installed a very similar, if not this exact one. It came with a special sealer that filled the gaps and gave the tiles a nice wet look. What do the instructions say?

It took something like 10 coats before getting the correct look, evenly, all over the tiles.

And yes, as the comment say, this is for a fireplace, not a kitchen.
