🐞 Documentation Bug: ssh keys are refreshed when instances boot #5508

What content on scaleway.com/en/docs is affected?

https://www.scaleway.com/en/docs/instances/troubleshooting/cant-connect-ssh/#check-that-the-instance-has-the-correct-public-key

What part(s) of the content would you like to see updated?

Hello,

the documentation page states that "If you add a new public key to your Project credentials after creating a new Instance, it will not automatically be uploaded to the existing Instance. Scaleway only uploads the public SSH keys specified at the time of the Instance's creation.".
However, that is untrue, the SSH keys are also updated at each reboot of an instance. Perhaps that precision could be added because it could confuse users?

This may not be the only affected page.

Thanks!
