Yes, I understand it, and I about it have written in my letter.
I think above that how to make so that worked on not listening port.
It is possible certainly, simply to redirect on any something responding 
service.
But for this purpose foreign service is besides necessary.

Why?
Simply so, on ssh you will not come any more.
If I am not mistaken, probability of that the scanner will begin the 
check with "key" port,
and further at once will check up sshd is equal - 1 / (0xFFFF*0xFFFE).
If he will not make itthis, he can be caught on max-src-conn-rate 
concerning public services,
and to put for his forward from all ports on ssh localhost.

Best regards, GreenX.
