It is not like most people really need that accuracy, but they get

IMHO those requirements tend to be from people

It is also challenging, and people, especially engineers like, and often
respond to, challenges. There are alternatives to NTPD, although some are
more complex; maybe management knows what they are doing. I would ask one

I'm seeing behaviour on rebooting a Raspberry Pi Linux system which is
stopping the PPS signal getting through to NTP. It seems that the GPS
device does not emit any pulses on the PPS line for some time after it
has been powered up. This I understand and it's the time taken for a
good enough
