[tor-onions] HSV3 - chmod 700 for keys

Hello,

When creating a hidden Service version 3, I noticed the public and
private key files have a chmod 700 when hostname is 600.

For hostname I understand; but why execution is set for keys?
I tried to chmod 600 for key files and it also worked.

Is there a particular reason for this situation?

Cheers,

Patrick
