This is a great idea. I now exclusively use SSH keys on hardware security modules of some kind. I use "Secretive", a mac app that does the same, plus a yubikey using yubikey-agent (https://github.com/FiloSottile/yubikey-agent; there are too many complicated ways to use SSH keys with a yubikey this is one of the friendliest ones). Depending on the security and frequency of which I access the service impacts whether I need presence confirmation or use secretive versus the yubikey.
I would be remiss to mention there are existing SSH TPM projects, not sure how this one differentiates. It seems to at least have the user experience pretty simple, similar to yubikey-agent (and secretive), and unlike some of the existing solutions which have quite a few extra steps:
