I am not sure I can tie a proper (non-padded) email address to the one I
messed up with the program I am using. I'm pretty new to the process. I
have to figure out the right rhythm and steps.

If you were to create an email to me using my current key, would you
have to remove the R_E_M_O_V_E part manually each and every time?

Yes, I pulled that one down.  It has 5 "Also known as" email addresses.

Key management could be a nightmare across multiple devices.

It's pretty neat that I can look up old friends and check the properties
of the keys.
