I strongly agree with this consideration.

Many years of employment of ftpd in different environments (sometimes under
heavy load) means something, too.
Maybe even more than synthetic tests.

You are correct; I was remembering the announcement, not the switch off.

I have several servers running 11.4 and 12.2 that do nightly portsnap

then, nothing.
This seems highly unusual since seems like there was always SOMETHING
updated daily now nothing.

Deprecating base system ftpd does seem to be a good idea, especially for
FreeBSD users wanting to use their computer as a workstation/desktop instead of
as a server. I think the argument becomes, "who is our target audience?" If the
target audience is both server and desktop users, then

Speaking for myself, like some others here, I would find the removal of
ftp inconvenient, and if it is removed,
please could we have it in an easy to install and configure port.
We have a number of apps that transfer data, and legacy issues mean that
it's hard to transfer to another protocol.

Because it's an *incompatible* replacement.
While I never enabled ftpd, I was once asked to.
I refused and enabled sftp instead: the problem was that for 99% of the
customers
"Can I ask, for those who do enable it, why isn’t “sftp” acceptable (or
“scp”)? Both provide a similar function, securely, which also works with a
basic installation without any ports. SSHFXP, the protocol underlying sftp

It seems a pointless change of something that it seems a reasonable number
