I'd run two separate instances of sshd, one for each interface whose
behavior you want to be unique.  Give each one a separate config file,
which does whatever it is you need to do.

You could even run one of them inside a chroot, if that is the easiest
way to do whatever it is you want.

(You don't want to listen on loopback?!)

If he simply went back to

  ListenAddress 0.0.0.0
  ListenAddress ::

then it would listen on all the machine's interfaces.  That is the default.
Heck, he could even remove all the ListenAddress lines entirely, because
these *are* default settings.
