SSHing to another machine isn’t a solution, you’re just using a different machine.

The way to solve it and still continue to use iOS is to implement your VPN at the network layer. e.g. use one of those wifi routers with a VPN client built in.

They circumvent this by forcing certain traffic to circumvent your hardened WiFi by using the mobile network radios.
That is a possibility but the last I checked it was not the case.

That's a little impractical for a phone. You'd have to lug around some kind of VPN-enabled mobile hotspot, plus batteries to power it.

You’re right, it ain’t convenient… but mobile hotspots already have batteries.
