If I were setting up an ftp server, I would create a /pub directory in
/home and would also create a /home/pub/incoming directory then lock any
guest into the /home/pub and /home/pub/incoming directories. The
/home/pub directory would be where I'd put files available for download
and the /home/pub/incoming/ directory is where guests could upload files
if they wanted to do so. You'll find that setup on many professional
ftp servers that have been on the internet for many years by now.

That locks the user in their home directory
That locks the user in any directory of your choosing. Choosing the home
directory is the most common case, and therefore the one you find explained,
but not the only option.
