Accuracy as in 'how close to 'real time' can you get' is just not an issue.
Reliability as in 'how much of the time is it available?' is. So just sync
I'd have considered it the other way around... PCs have internal
clocks, so can do without a reference clock for periods of time - a few
minutes won't matter. eg. my line hosts websites and I use it for paid
work... it'll be up 99% of the time unless I'm working on something (and
medium term it's not going anywhere). It's nowhere near corprorate
uptime but won't normally be down for long.
OTOH if the source I sync to has clock drift & I end up 10 seconds out,
that can matter to some applications... kerberos is a complete git for
this (and I sometimes to krb authentication from remote sites so this
matters).
