Most notably, ntp request packet type 6 is missing, making it impossible to remotely monitor a chrony server with the Monitoring Plugin check_ntp_peer. Who knows which crucial parts of the protocol they didn't bother to implement either?
https://lwn.net/Articles/735211/Would be interesting to see if ntpsec has improved significantly since then. At least back then, chrony was the clear winner (also by not supporting some (legacy) cruft).
