I agree that would be required to pin it. I wasn't asking to pin it by
default, just if ntpd should (as a client) always send a Server
Negotiation record. Given it's not required by the draft, it sounds like
you and Gary are leaning toward "no".

I don't have enough of a provable use case to argue further in favor of
always sending a Server Negotiation record.
