Don't login as root... It's not good practise, SSH on BSD by default does also
not allow for it. Add your normal user to the wheel group, use that to login
The top Linux distros screw up a bunch of the ssh_config(5) and
sshd_config(5) defaults.

No. Between both machines, no files exist in any /root/.ssh or ~/.ssh
directory other than known_hosts which apparently is fine based on the
verbose logging. For completeness, I'm including the full root
connection verbose log.

you have skipped this part when pasting your verbose connection with root, I'm just
curious.
maybe when you're connecting with root, its reading its options from
$HOME/.ssh/options + u're specifying -l testuser
and from testuser's shell it's reading /etc/ssh/config

I continue to have problems with SSH authentication. The behavior is
outside the normal I'm used to. Here's what's going on:
I'm trying to ssh from MACHINE1 to MACHINE2 as user "testuser".
Now here's the funny thing:
