Because it'll decrypt them to plain files on file system (best is a
temporary file ) so that they be used further by SSL services. The

stolen by modern malware) but to pseudo (in-memory) files which can't
be read & passed to subpr

AFAIK OpenSSL decrypts encrypted private keys directly into the internal data
