Like Hal pointed out, ALPN makes this a non-issue. But what gave you
the idea that NTS-KE wants 123/tcp? There's been some back-and-forth
on this in the WG but I've been advocating against using 123 because
NTS-KE is explicitly not specific to NTP and can be extended to
provide similar negotiation mechanisms for other protocols.
Regardless, it's just a number and makes no technical difference.
