This must be something special with your Emacs config. The following
works with Emacs 31 for me:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
# emacs -Q /ssh::
M-x shell
M-: default-directory
=> #("/ssh:gandalf:~/" 5 12 (tramp-default t))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
