Haven't needed FTP support for about a decade now at $WORK and at home. SSH has quickly become the ubiquitous replacement for FTP. Windows 10 even comes with a native OpenSSH client these days (along with the version that comes with WSL). As for ftpd being in base, as a user of FreeBSD (not a developer) I'm ok with it moving to ports or disappearing completely. So long as fetch(8) supports FTP for connecting to remote FTP servers.
