No, it would make it more secure. It's almost impossible to bruteforce a
public key, and that is the only authentication method enabled.
I would do it, but sometimes I have to ssh-in from other computers than my
own, so public key authentication only would not be desired. I always have
my phone,

On all of my Linux systems (of any architecture), SSHD reports incoming
connections in copious detail.
Look where your SYSLOG traffic is recorded. Hopefully the OE SSHD logs
