What do any of the programs you've listed have to do with ssh?

Not a thing.

But if we can't tolerate two ssh implementations, why can we tolerate two command line web page fetchers? Or two FTP clients? Or two web clients? Or two graphics manipulation packages? Or seven interactive command shells? Or eight text editors? Or...?

What makes ssh so special that There Can Be Only One?

I think Chris has clarified this for you in his response.  Being a long
time reader of this list and witnessing the volume of email about the
current OpenSSH package (I'm not implying any problem with Corinna's
work on this!), I agree with Chris's opinion that it is unlikely to help
if there is yet another Cygwin package with an 'ssh' implementation as
part of it.  To me, at least, that's what makes 'ssh' so special.
