more than half of the servers in the pool seem to be dead.  Isn't

Are you sure that they are dead, or just not responding to NTP control mode (mode 6) packets? Because mode 6 is what ntptrace uses, when the actual NTP time queries are sent/received using modes 1-5. All pool servers that I just tried did answer to normal time queries (mode 3) just fine. Some server operators choose to restrict mode 6 queries, that is completely acceptable by the pool rules.
