I totally agree.

If Microsoft decided to have a SPOF for time sources, in samba/UNIX we
can do different configuration, more robust.


Strictly speaking, every configuration will work, privided that all DC
use a ''coherent sources of time'', internal or external does not
bother at all!

Sayed that, surely it is better to suggest some preferred
configuration, eg setting DC ntpd/chrony configuration to have as a time
sources each other, and/or rely on the same set of external (or
internal, if there's just a NTP hierarchy) servers.
