Albeit a now invisible knob that must be searched for via a door scan. While I don’t personally switch my ssh port from default, I would imagine doing so would cut down on a ton of the noise from lowest common denominator ssh attempts.

I have changed some default ports and seeing the number of connection attempts drop from <many> down to close to zero was just nice. There are just fewer connections opened, fewer logs to analyze and so on. In my view, fewer connection attempts means less data to analyze which in my view is a security and cost benefit.

My entire house nearly instantly becomes invisible to anyone doing a door scan. This is what an effective psad/fail2ban setup can do.
