Research direction

No file, test, or entry point is named. Start by reproducing the NTP timeout followed by “Ignoring NTP update due to low skew,” then trace the timeout and skew-handling paths in the Kotlin SNTP client. Done should mean the cause is identified and the client’s behavior is corrected or clearly documented with a regression test.
