Does it make a difference ...?  While I can see an advantage for files
that need the correct date to have them, in my experience that for most
files its irrelevant including those in /dev.  The Rpi doest care (and
its interesting to see what files the Rpi is actually using as they
update :) - I just use ntp to set the system time and dont seem to have
any problems - so what problem do the older files actually cause?

You could use a "find" command identify then "touch" the files and
update their timestamp once the system is up/before whatever is critical
starts.
