I think it makes a lot of sense for stratum one servers to peer with
each other!

Will that have any effect?  Won't each stratum-1 only believe it's own
directly attached stratum-0 reference?  Or will a large enough swarm
of stratum-1's all with similar times be able to win the selection
contest against a failed stratum-0?

You can connect more than one stratum-0 reference to each server, additionally peer them, additionally connect other (public) servers, and define the system clock as fallback.

E.g. I have two time servers, each with 3 radio clocks, 5 public servers, and the system clock as fallback. Usally one of the radio clocks wins, but short before or during thunderstorms one of the public servers wins.

In a configuration of 10 servers, each with GPS directly connected, I would peer them.
