My belief is 802.11 treats all unicast datagrams equally, and all multicast/broadcast datagrams equally, in terms of the ack/retransmit behavior. I'm not making any statement about standards compliance -- I am unfamiliar with 802.11 specs. My peanut gallery idea is perhaps UDP in general or NTP specifically would benefit from 802.11 not attempting retransmission.
