For dev environments SSH is essential, but in production environments I 100% agree with using SSM Session Manager instead of SSH. Getting terminal access to a production server is sometimes necessary but it ought to be temporary access, all actions are logged, and treated as an exception situation rather than routine. SSM session manager provides all that without requiring SSH keys and SSH firewall rules in production.
