Re:New startup sells coffee through SSH by kazinator on Wednesday May 01, 2024 @08:08PM (#40231225)
This feature is not enabled by default; "ForwardAgent = yes" has to be in the config file.

The article you cited makes it clear that you can turn this on for specific hosts in your private SSH config (and probably should do it that way).

So why wouldn't you?

Turning on forwarding globally and then having to remember to disable it for some untrusted hosts with -a looks silly and error-prone to me.
