Bingo.

Incidentally, for the other pool (of a massive size, 4×Legacy IP,
5×IPv6) I’m using, I use a specific alias to only get one set, to
avoid precisely that… unfortunately, the hoster pool doesn’t have
this.

Is there a way to say “give me only v4 or only v6 from this pool”
or “deduplicate the pool result based on reverse DNS (checked, i.e.
that forward DNS expands to both IPs again)”?

The latter, especially, would be useful, also with pool.ntp.org…

Thanks in advance,
