If you are already using SSH in a situation where ‘exit’ doesn’t work, it becomes more reasonable to assume the user will know.

I don't understand what you're saying here; could you expand a bit?

  • I'm not who you replied to, but I hardly ever need to use tilde escape sequences to quit ssh. I just terminate the session from inside itself with the `exit` command.

    • The most common case I’ve hit issues is the remote server is down or blocked but the connection hasn’t yet terminated so exit is no longer possible.
