If you mainly see the satellites' reflections you may get a "fix" that
has a position that deviates significantly from the ground truth, which
in turn makes your time solution wrong.  As I'm reading the description
in the firmware, the occurence of such solutions should be minimized by
discarding solutions that show your position moving (too fast), but
since your position is still an unknown to be solved for you could end
up with a wrong one nevertheless.

That only works on designated timing receivers, AFAIK.
