Because you don't want to run the risk of your SSH server being replaced by some shady regular-user process which will gladly pick up your login credentials, the smart thing is to bind services like SSH to ports below 1024.
Yes, it's better to run it < 1024 but different from 22 (default). Actually the only plus for binding it != 22 is that you avoid filling your log files with automatic scans/attacks. regards, Georgi Alexandrov
