In my experience most people have a hard enough time remembering to
run ntp at all (and with an even remotely sane configuration - this is
why a sane default using the ntp pool is helpful as a baseline). Add
authentication into the mix and many operations will almost certainly
just have even more mis-configuration. :-)
