In *my* case I have like 4x keys to load, so ssh-copy-id tries them all, and then get the penalty triggers and the keys aren’t loaded. Can you pre-configure sshd_config on the Debian hosts with the PerSourcePenaltyExemptList directive prior to installing keys? This will allow you to specify a comma-separated list of addresses to exempt from penalties. You could also tweak the penalty settings for various conditions in PerSourcePenalties. I'm guessing expanding min:duration might work in this case but I haven't tried it.
