Usually timing grade GPS receivers have better PPS outputs than navigation
GPS receivers and timing grade receivers support the so called position
hold mode that provides a valid PPS output even if only 1 bird is being
received.
Yes, it is better to implement the PPS synchronization in the digital
world: easier to implement very low     low pass filters.
