If it's a public key corresponding to kBr being a private key, why is it a
problem ?

I am not sure you've mentioned how exactly kBr should be used. Stating that
it's a private key, and generating the corresponding
public key seems to make sense.

What's the problem of doing this ? I am asking because I'd like to find a
flow where we limit the number of public keys
attached to a user stored in the user directory.

Ideally, one key per user and service. I am not sure to understand the
value of an extra level of indirection between kBr and a corresponding
published public key.
