mine is not. It just should NOT ask for any password at all!Correct, ssh-agent (or gnome-keyring-daemon) is needed for keys encrypted with a passphrase. The idea that the user does not have access to unencripted key, only the agent keeps this information in a guarded memory area. If you don't use passphrase then you don't need the agent.
But make sure that if your systemd unit has SSH_AUTH_SOCK set then corresponding agent should exist and alive. Otherwise sshfs will fail trying to connect to the agent, even if your key does not have the passphrase.
Still it fails to work if I remove the Environment line, again I feel like the problem is very connected with the fact that I cannot SSH into the computers without entering the passowrd every time, as if the host computers disabled RSA login

I reread your initial post and you are saying that you cannot set-up public key authentication and server always asks you a password. Is it correct? If so sshfs automount will not work as it will ask you for a password but at the time of mounting by systemd it does not have a terminal - no way for you to enter the password.
One reason why pubkey does not work is that it might be disabled by your University computer administrator. Ask them if pubkey authentication is possible and try to setup password-less login from your terminal.
