This is why you want some capacity for central low-effort maintainance
of all those machines - including re-application of config requirements
ater they've been tampered with.
It sounds like you want to divide machines into "supported" and "unsupported"
and the supported ones should be enrolled in your central scheme with no
exceptions allowed.
If you could include automated edits (where nec.) to config files and a way
to restart the main sshd server without breaking current sessions you'd be
well on the way to solving this.
