I can't imagine the sequence of horrible decisions that led to doing this. Like, why would the time service ever want to depend on all this insanity when if it has a network and everything else is bizarro world, just like scrape the time and date text from weather.gov.
Or just accept that absent NTP, w32time maybe just shouldn't try to set the clock to whatever a circus clown tells it?
This sort of reminds me how there is a buried registry setting to tell w32time to not place the firmware clock at very high stratum in the time sources list which also is just a giant WTF in how those two behaviors were decided on.
