I already have the Odroid, and Mark asked me to support it at Penguicon.
You can ask him why he thinks it's important; I remember that he gave
me some reasons, but let's not play telephone.

Odroids are HAT compatible. I have an Adafruit HAT on order to mate with the
ODroid, expecting it tomorrow.

The BeagleBone people are so eager to work with us that they'll almost
certainly do a specialty GPS+RTC cape (possibly with an OxCO) and maybe
a fully intgrated variant BB.

The deal we've struck with them is: They supply the hardware, we'll do the
software integration.  I think they're our best bet for a real single-board
solution.  Nothing's signed yet, but Jason Kridner (one of beaglebone.org's
founders) just joined the NTPsec Signal group.
