It is expected. Scp is a client/server application, i.e., the same
program is used for the client and server end of the scp protocol.
That's why scp needs to be available on the server.
If you want to be able to transfer files with a server without scp
installed on it, you can configure sshd on the server to use the
internal-sftp subsystem for servicing sftp requests, and then use the
sftp client to transfer files to/from the server.
