Which has nothing to do with terminals, because nobody runs terminals directly over TCP. Telnet wasn’t simply sending terminal bytes over TCP, it has its own complex system of escape sequences and protocol negotiation (IAC WILL/WONT/DO/DONT/SB/SE, numerous Telnet options). SSH is even further from raw TCP than Telnet was
And a Unix pty isn’t a simple stream either. Consider SIGWINCH
