Hum hum. I see. My mistake.
It seems I completely misunderstood what ProxyJump does.

In fact, this is an ssh session into an ssh tunnel.
Encapsulation, simply.

I thought this was a way to chain ssh sessions.
As if the jumping-host had some back-to-back ssh agents
(the ssh-daemon bound to an ssh-client to the target host).

Sorry for the mistake. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Best regards.
