If that were what I had suggested, you might have a point.  I'm want
FreeBSD to ship with an ssh client, too.  I just want it shipped as a
package, so that it's easier to delete when I'm ready to replace it
with one that meets my requirements (about an hour after install).
Having it be easier to update when there's a security issue would be
an added bonus.
