You correct that SSH doesn’t support encryption, but RAGE does, has current
best practices, and can optionally use ssh keys to encrypt:

I personally practice key separation so don’t  use ssh keys for encryption,
and use their native keys instead. However this practice is cumbersome and
is one of the things that a did document could help with.
