so if the user is actively using an sftp session they aren't logged on? all of
the major ftp servers seem to disagree with your stance as they DO log to the
wtmp log whenever a user begins and ends an ftp session.

therefore, the sftp server needs to log user logons/logoffs to the wtmp log.  if
yo u don't, the wtmp log will not be accurate and some insitutions, such as
universities, need accurate logs of who is using the system at all times.
