Simply, I am unable to mimic a ssh -c <cipher> <user>@<host> call with Remote SSH with VS Code. I allow the extension (Remote SSH) to auto-generate the config based off the input ssh command, yet the command is not replicated when the config file is sourced

The command output in VS Code's terminal

[Timestamp] Running script with connection command: ssh -T -D <5 digit Port> -F "<Path to Config File>" "<Host>" bash

The provided ssh command

ssh <user>@<host> -c <cipher>

And the auto-generated config contents inside VS Code

Host <hostname>
    HostName <hostname>
    User <user>
    Cipher <cipher>

Any guesses on why the disconnect between the provided command, the generated config file and the output command? I am unable to find anything online with VS Code & SSH & Usage of Ciphers.

If important, this is from Windows 10 to a Linux box on an AWS workspace virtual machine, and I can ssh no problem from powershell as well as use remote interpeter within pycharm professional on the windows machine
