That's fine, that's a generic argument parsing error.

That error makes no sense.  ED25519 keys have a fixed length, and
16384 is the limit for RSA keys.  Looks like an error path that
dates back to when only DSA and RSA were supported and that wasn't
updated when additional key types were added.

I'll send a tweak to tech@.
