Isn't it possible to configure systemd so that it only starts certain
daemons if there's network? Having an NTP daemon installed on such
networks, and configured so that it does that, would alleviate that
concern.

(That would not fix the issue for non-systemd installs, but that
shouldn't be too much of a problem)
