I don't understand why, do you have a use case? I deactivated sshd multiple times for some clients (needlessly I should add since the VM only network access was through VNC, and sometimes nfs wo) to avoid data leaks. When some data (often code) had to be sent to the VM, I don't see one case when reactivating ssh and not sftp is better than the reverse. Activating sftp only allowed us to keep track of the file put on the server, effectively copying everything passing through the chroot directory.
