No. The mechanism is clear. While one is answering its interrupt the

I think we are at cross purposes here. What i'm saying is that if there
are 2 sources of pps signals, say from 2 time servers, there will be a
slight offset between the two, so how to determine which is the accurate one ?. With 3 or more pps sources, those with the least offset
could be chosen for analysis, to find a median value.

Of course, host processing must introduce uncertainty, but would assume
that ntp is designed to mitigate that ?.
