More seriously, it should be installed by default. If you are in a pinch,
having to install it might be not a nuisance, but a big problem. Suppose,
for instance, that the problem you need to solve for which you need to
access the machine is that Yast and zypper do not work.
rpm -ivh http://download.../openssh-server.rpm will do too.

Have you tried that over the phone with a dumb user? ;-)

I don't think the size of the binary is that important.
No, but
a) "zypper in" is about the easiest

First open a terminal... then type "su -"... and then you have a frightened user at the other side of the phone.

b) we could enable server automatically by means of selecting
"network admin" or "experienced user" pattern

Mmm... :-?
