But that's your choice. I have multiple "users", and only one of them has access to ssh keys, etc. Users I use for less trusted apps just have write access to their mostly empty home dir filled with some dotfiles "whatever" app created by itself.
You can firewall by process UIDs/GIDs too, and I use that to allow the user access only to the internet and not to localhost or home network, or only to localhost, etc.
