However bad your key management is, unless you're on an older ssh that will let you choose to use the "None" cipher, you're still better off than telnet!

Right? It doesn’t even make sense - on any actively updated ssh agent you’d have to go out of your way.

Also - SSH offers more than just encryption, but also data integrity - you can modify / manipulate a telnet session in ways you just can’t via SSH
