If you make that change you will still be downloading files sequentially, whereas using X components means you can download files consecutively which will be X times faster, although it will be a heavier load on the FTP server. All the FTP components can share the same events, you create them dynamically as an array, and use a few state arrays to keep track of which components are downloading which files. Francois recently added a demo that does this, OverbyteIcsFtpMultiPartDownload, although it is designed to download a single large file as multiple chunks.
