Reading ssh_config(5), I suspect it needs to be
Host 192.168.1.9
CheckHostIP no
StrictHostKeyChecking no

ssh(1) will use your user name by default. You're overriding that with
‘-l pi’ there. ‘ssh pi@raspberrypi-4.local’ is another syntax. Or use
your ~/.ssh/config to say
Host pi4
Hostname raspberrypi-4.local
User pi
and then you can just ‘ssh pi4’. See ssh_config(5).

Bear in mind you're naming the function of the SD card used to boot.
