This discussion is full of schizo solutions to "secure" SSH, most of which make no practical sense or have no technical basis.

There really needs to be a definitive best practices guide published by a trusted authority.

In my view it is more important to stop using software keys so probably use sk (fido) for both host and user.. From there CAs would be a next step.. The level of documentation and example setups is astoundingly poor if you even look at step 2 for any feature. I.e. SK keys are reasonably understood for user keys but the setup as host keys is vague and needs testing to see if it really works.
Can you give some examples of which suggestions you think are schizo?
