> It’s lacking a notion of virtual hosts, or being able to serve different endpoints on different hostnames from a single IP address.

this is the answer. but fantastic read of an article

A thing I ran into is there are no virtual hosts in SSH, i.e. you can't have an SSH server at happy.example.org and ecstatic.example.org if they're both the same IP address. There was a patch for this but support waned. It's a huge blocker.

I guess the answer is UI, which clearly the author didn't mention
