As mentioned before, it doesn't matter much for the accuracy of pool

connections fudge the stratum of their servers down to "announce" this
systemic error in some way, so that nobody tries to use one of the
DSL-based pool servers for a more sensitive application by "accident".

I thought the stratum was just there to make sure a ring of ntpds don't end up syncing to themselves to themselves to themselves to themselves.
