Mar 21, 2022 at 11:28 comment added JW0914 OpenSSH is quite clear on permissions of keys, as they should not be accessible to anyone but the user. Best way I've found to manage SSH keys is to use a YubiKey, storing the SSH key in the A[uthentication] slot (@user1686's Suggestion #4); while OpenSSH supports hardware keys, I'm unsure how to directly configure it to access a PAM without 3rd party software (gpg || Gpg4Win with Kleopatra loaded). @User1686's Suggestion #1 seems the simplest and most efficient way to go about this. General FYI: SSH key best practice is to encrypt the key, negating the need for an encrypted container.
