"none" method is just a means to query to determine what methods the server supports. As a response, the server sends back a method list. Technically speaking, you can bypass authentication entirely in SSH2 by directly going to "ssh-connection" service after kex is done. But as far as I know, Openssh doesn't support it because of the impracticality of this in almost all real world scenarios (I could be wrong). I am not sure about SSH.com's server.
