The the only reason I change my ssh port is to reduce log file noise. Not as a security mechanism.

Oddly enough, I have also run across networks where outbound port 22 was blocked. Handy for that too.

Me too. I've used a different ssh port for eight years. Not a single log entry from ssh brute forcing idiots during this time.
