At this point, I would visit each machine and:

That would be guaranteed to cause failure. For example, my private keys
cannot have 0777 permissions!

I think you're misinterpreting that command.  It *removes* all "other"
permissions from the files.  I'm not sure what the point of it is, but
it won't harm anything.

SSH server will refuse a connection from the user if the permissions
on the .ssh/ directory, keys or authorized_keys are too loose. See,
for example, <https://stackoverflow.com/q/67000681>.

Sure, but ssh was working and using sudo isn't going to add permissions to the files. (It's not even going to use those files.)
But the solution was already found anyway, so this is all irrelevant.
