While SSH supports an option to tunnel X-Window traffic through it, it
will require your host computer to be running an X-Server. (Native if you
are running a Linux system, but not for Windows -- that will require
downloading and configuring some third-party software).
In contrast -- the R-Pi software includes a version of VNC, and host
VNC applications can be downloaded to do similar.
For the BBB -- If I really need the GUI, I find it easier to just
connect a USB keyboard/mouse, and run an HDMI cable to my computer monitor
-- then use the monitor menu to swap input source from Display-Port (which
my main desktop computer runs) to the HDMI port.
