Stratum 16 _is_ a valid stratum. It just happens to indicate an
unsynchronized state.

An ntpd operating at Stratum 1 is synchronized to a local ref-clock.

An ntpd operating at Stratum 2 is synchronized to an ntpd operating at
Stratum 1.

...

An ntpd operating at Stratum 15 is synchronized to an ntpd operating at
Stratum 14.

An ntpd operating at Stratum 16 is not synchronized.
