 Providers frequently require that a password or other secret is supplied. If 
the provider requires a password and is unable to find one, it will use a 
default password and emit a warning message that the default password is being 
used. If the `-strict` flag is supplied, the warning message becomes an error 
message and the command returns immediately with an error status.

+NOTE: Some KeyProviders do not directly execute a key deletion (e.g. performs 
a soft-delete instead, or delay the actual deletion, to prevent mistake). In 
these cases, one may encounter errors when creating/deleting a key with the 
same name after deleting it. Please check the underlying KeyProvider for 
details.
