it must be defined at the moment of creating the key. And that is the
reason to use "key pairs", because a singe key can't do both functions.

"Key pair" in most contexts actually refers to the set of
public key + private key, not to key + subkey(s) -- at least that seems to be the common usage from what I've seen.

Cheers,
