Yup, that is correct. (But they're still being inconsiderate jerks
for the way they use the pool).
The plan is to make the pool script[1] export the list of NTP servers
in a format then read by pgeodns[2].
pgeodns needs to get some new smarts to know to return some IPs more
often than others. I also need to figure out how to split the IPs in
the 4-5 unique zones in a way so the view is consistent yet slowly
rotating. Maybe just do it as it's currently done (split them when
the file is generated, regenerate the file every so often).
There's a general TODO / ideas list for the pool system at
