I agree.  It is a pain in the butt for your users and does almost
nothing for your security.

BTW, if you do decide to do this on some servers here is the easy way to
configure command line ssh to just work:
in ~/.ssh/config:
Host hostname hostname2 hostname3 etc
  Port xxxx

You can also specify things like user names in there so you don't have
to specify all that stuff every time you connect.
