Two questions: 1. Are you not allowed to carry more than one key at a time? (Would save quite a bit of backtracking if you could!) 2. There's no way to clip through the platform to the left of the locks and skip having to get the keys altogether?

You can only carry one key at a time. You can't skip the keys, you can clip up after the locks, but the screen transition isn't there.
