All my buster systems log in the usual manner. Yes, I have some
incantations that I've copied from this list, but I don't normally
use them. eg:

$ journalctl -xe _SYSTEMD_UNIT=ssh.service | lessx
-- Logs begin at Mon 2020-03-23 08:11:58 CDT, end at Mon 2020-03-23 21:10:01 CDT. --
Mar 23 08:12:35 wren sshd[701]: Server listening on 0.0.0.0 port 22.
Mar 23 08:12:35 wren sshd[701]: Server listening on :: port 22.
$ grep 'Server listening' /var/log/auth.log
Mar 22 08:10:57 wren sshd[976]: Server listening on 0.0.0.0 port 22.
Mar 22 08:10:57 wren sshd[976]: Server listening on :: port 22.
Mar 23 08:12:35 wren sshd[701]: Server listening on 0.0.0.0 port 22.
Mar 23 08:12:35 wren sshd[701]: Server listening on :: port 22.
$ 

Looks the same to me.

Cheers,
David.
