Peering them is a good idea, but isn't going to help, since they will
each view the other as being of a higher stratum then their upstream
servers.

claim that 2 servers is not good because they may have different

You are missing the point that it is not the case that two different
servers may have different time, it is the case that they *will* have
different time. The only question is by how much. Obviously, the closer
together they are, the less the impact will be.
These are two servers within an organization. They can be interconnected
with a "peer" line. They should be closely together until one or both
of them get "unsynchronized", which the clients will notice.
Of course, with a LOCAL clock they will remain synchronized to LOCAL
and they can drift away from real time.
