If it's your private pet server - sure. In larger networks you have to document the access, manage the allowed ports on the network, configure security groups or equivalent on instances, provide alternative steps for people with unusual clients (for example database UI app proxying over SSH), etc. The cost suddenly becomes very non-trivial.
