Most likely asymmetrical paths, yes. To answer your implied question, it
is most /unlikely/ that the USA National Time is 17 milliseconds away
from Japan National Time, if that's what you were thinking. National
time differences are likely to be microseconds or less, I believe.
Single-digit ns is more like it:
GPS had ~10ns as their internal target vs US standard time, and the US
would be within 10 ns from the global UTC paper clock, many years ago.
Today we're almost certainly significantly closer than this.
