Who said anything about implementing? You didn't ask and I don't want to.

You can find a lot of ssh/scp/sftp clients for android,

I have some but wasn't my question.
The problem is over years Android is more & more locked down and some variants even more so.
While I was able to ssh/rsync to & from areas, the problem is in recent years Android even restricts access to your own SD card, which is where I wanted to rsync (Android PC being almost full but SD card being almost empty.)
Elsewhere people describe how to ssh/rsync with termux, and I read termux wiki and you only get to copy to certain directory/folder on SD card, which defeats purpose.
I'll mark this solved as what rkelsen said was true and I could ssh both ways (with connectbot or simplesshd or termux) though wasn't able to use solution to do what I wanted...
I hope Android is replaced with more programmer-/system-administrator-friendly OSs that let you do more, like Ubuntu touch sort of did (though started snapd nonsense) but of course Unix & Slackware (and Gentoo, Devuan, non-systemd Arch forks, etc.) are better...
The reason I asked is because MTP no longer works on the Android PC (for years) so I have to open case, remove SD card, put in desktop's memory card reader, or make archive/tarball to download, just to transfer files to Android PC...
