The private key should be tightly scoped to its context of use. I would definitely agree with you if it's one key that rules the entire kingdom.

AOT is nice for startup time, but there are tradeoffs in the other direction for long tail performance issues in production. There are JITs that use dynamic profile guided optimization which can adjust the emitted binary at runtime to ada
