I found the public comments from Microsemi
<https://www.nist.gov/sites/default/files/documents/2017/05/09/NIST-RFI-Internet-Time-Service-response.pdf>,
but couldn't locate my response.   At one time the full set of RFI public
responses was on-line.

The NIST 60 kHz time service is widely used by inexpensive clocks, but I
find little use by public NTP servers.
