I know you said that.

You are talking about the NTS-KE to NTPD server connection.

I am talking about the NTPD client to NTPD server connection.

Since they both need to work the same way we need to look at them
at the same time.

No, just reading it wrong.

Looked at yet another way, the draft suggest to rotate the master key
once a day, same master key on NTS-server and NTPD server.  But TLS
uses a new master key every connection.

How do you propose that the NTS-KE (with TLS) and NTPD (without TLS)
server share the same master key for one day using a master key from
ephmeral TLS connections to the NTS-KE?

Can't fit a round peg in the square hole.
