Its about 5 lines of powershell to install and start OpenSSH. Maybe a few more if you want to automatically inject public keys. Well within possibilities of a user_data script that runs on the first boot of an AWS instance.
My main pain with OpenSSH on Windows was that its an older 7.7 Windows port that gets installed. However 8.1 is finally bundled as part of the recent KB5001391 and fixes some annoying bugs.
