What is the reasoning behind this (as signing keys just are on the uploaded key with a keyid — so we are talking about the key its own data) ?

And pair this if needed with a submission protocol that insists on having the private key.

That would also openup, from a GDPR perspective, allowing the signing key ids back in.
