Cheating at a company group activity using Unix tools

At a higher level of operation, companies are switching to immutable infrastructure.

So you don't need to SSH to debug, you'd just re-deploy another container or something.

However, there's an <<extremely>> long tail of places, equivalent to mom and pop stores, where SSH will still be in use for a long, long time. I include antiquated banks or government in "mom and pop stores" for the purposes of this discussion :-p

I've still never seen a place where this was true.

At some point you always run into a situation where you need to see what's happening inside the container in production at a level of detail that isn't available except by directly connecting. So you attach a sidecar with SSH, or you deploy a debug version of your container that runs SSH, and then you SSH into your container and see what's happening.
