Can anyone tell me why it'd be a bad idea to open up my filesystem to read-only SSH access from the internet?

If you're deadset on the absurd madness you can attempt to use a community "punching bag" container, like https://github.com/engineer-man/piston, something like that or a honeypot that's tuned to resist abuses of the infra. But that way lies pain, lots of pain and dogecoin miners, rats, and trojans. Regular precautions won't be enough, and even a locked-down container/VM is likely only a matter of time. Decent hackers' bots are gonna run down a giant list of stuff from metasploit and there's probably something in open-enough userland that can be abused for escape.
