Actually, I think I came up with a way to NTS enable the pool. Ask
would have to create an nts subdomain with a wildcard certificate.
FQDNs beginning with a number (ie 2.) return a quartet (or octet in
the case of 2.) of CNAMEs for number-letter beginning FQDNs (ie 2g.).
The number-letter host(s) are NTS-KE server(s) that negotiate for
criteria matching a pseudo-random host in a database as
*.nts.pool.ntp.org.

But I could be wrong. I pretty annoyingly often am.
