canonicalization
Product: Portable OpenSSH
Version: 8.0p1

ssh_config
(I marked it as a bug instead of an enhancement because I found nothing
in the man page that suggested I couldn't do this. It also probably
applies to all hardware and OSes)
Where I work, we tend to only access our stuff from our own
workstation, as an additional layer of security. Also, I don't want to
type a full FQDN everytime I want to use ssh.
In order to connect to work machines I usually ssh-ed into my
workstation, then to the machine that I wanted.
Eventually I got tired of the repetition, wanted to automate it and
came up with the attached configuration.
However, the HostName option is not applied and it tries to connect to
the canonicalized hostname (checked with -v flag).
If I replace "Match final ..." with "Host *" it works because
canonicalization no longer occurs (checked with -v flag).
