(I am not sure what exactly timedatectl looks at when checking the
status of ntpd, but the fact that in the ntpq output all your servers
show a stratum of 16 and a reach of 0 means that ntpd is defintely not
synchronized to anything....
When it's functioning properly, your pool server stratums should show up
somewhere between 1 and 3 or 4, and the reach will be an octal flag
showing progressively more bits turned on as responses are received from
the server in question [e.g. 1, 3, 7, 17, 37... on until 377, assuming
that there aren't any lost packets along the way].)
