Does Keychat do this in order to derive many children pub/priv key pairs?

No. Writing 12 words is easier than writing private key. 12 words == only one pub/pri key pairs. But Keychat allows users to generate many mnemonic seed phrase. So users can have many IDs.
Could you integrated / create a bip-85 style key derivation option? With that you could create a lot off derived keys for different "nym"IDs but only need to remember one mnemonic to rule them all.

Different mnemonics can provide better identity separation; for example, if a mnemonic is leaked, it will not lead to the exposure of all IDs.

This can be achieved. But keychat doesn’t support it now.
