Why it hast to be a problem? Finally, you have an encrypted message, so
what is the problem?
If ssh encrypts first and then compresses, you can uncompress the
message, but then all you've got is an encrypted message. By other side,
if ssh compresses first and then encrypts, you can't even uncompress the
message because you have to decrypt it previously.
