You could simplify, or even get rid of your upload file thing, just by leveraging ssh configuration in the first place.

How do you mean Norbert? (Can you give me some examples?)
Am curious what’s in yours now Andy..

By configuring each hosts port and user. You could just use scp server:index.html index.html or scp index.html server:index.html. so either direction would be the same use, just with swapped arguments.
You even can use aliases.
Sadly I am on my phone and copying is annoying, so I can only give you the simpler parts of an example. And I do not have to worry about ports in my scenario. All the servers use the default.
Host *.internal.nobbz.dev
User nmelzer
IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_rsa
Host *.nobbz.dev
User root
IdentityFile ~/.ssh/nobbz_dev
Host aarch64-build-box.nix-community.org
User nobbz
IdentityFile /home/nmelzer/.ssh/nix-community
Host build-box.nix-community.org
User nobbz
IdentityFile /home/nmelzer/.ssh/nix-community

I’ve got it broken out into a dozen or so files: functions, aliases, completions, encryption stuff, some written by me, some by 3rd parties (eg fzf).
function sourcefile() {
[ -f $1 ] && source $1
}
sourcefile ~/.rails_env
sourcefile ~/.bash_aliases
sourcefile ~/.bash_functions
sourcefile ~/.bash_marks
sourcefile ~/.mix_completions.bash
...
I guesstimate probably there is more than 15K lines of config in total. Performance is very good! (Xubuntu 24.04).

Nice! This has shortened some of my functions and made them more maintainable (by not needing to be updated every time I commission a new server):
upload_file() {
# Usage: upload_file <local_file> <remote_path> <server>
# Servers: first, second, third (or s1, s2, s3) etc
# $server variable is set to 'first' if <server> argument is not passed
server=${3:-first}
scp $1 $server:$2
}
Thank you (and @dimitrije!)

Anecdotal - I switched from using scp to rsync and found rsync is much faster. Recommend
server=${3:-first}
rsync -qavzrP $1 server:$2
