When explicitly setting an identity, either via the -i commandline
parameter or IdentityFile in the ssh config, these files are used only
after any other identity files found in ~/.ssh/ have failed pubkey
authentication.

When the remote host limits the number of pubkey authentication failures
before disconnecting, this can lead to a situation where the explicit
identity file is not even used when connecting to that host.

You need IdentitiesOnly=yes; from ssh_config(1):

  IdentitiesOnly
     Specifies that ssh(1) should only use the authentication identity
     files configured in the ssh_config files, even if ssh-agent(1) or
     a PKCS11Provider offers more identities.  The argument to this
     keyword must be “yes” or “no”.  This option is intended for situ‐
     ations where ssh-agent offers many different identities.  The
     default is “no”.
