> better UX with PGP instead of SSH

This might be true of comparing GPG to SSH-via-PIV, but there's a better way with far superior UX: derive an SSH key from a FIDO2 slot on the YubiKey.

I do it with FIDO2. It's inconvenient when having multiple Yubikeys (I always end up adding the entry manually with ssh-agent), and I have to touch the Yubikey everytime it signs. That makes it very annoying when rebasing a few tens of commits, for instance.

With GPG it just works.
