There is one potential disadvantage of non-standard ports: there are a

open!)
OK, raise their hand everyone here who runs an SSH server somewhere out
on the net on port 443 for the deliberate purpose of tunneling through a
work-related proxy server / firewall combination to do non-proxy-allowed
stuff.
