We should be able to write a script to do the splitting.
It's a concern even beyond risk-aversion.
My production ntpd configs are written by Ansible. So even if there's a
script available, and even if the ntpsec package in Debian runs it by
default (e.g. I do that wearing my packager hat), I still need to modify
my Ansible configuration. And I'll likely end up needing to support
systems before and after the transition for a while, so that adds some
complexity.
By all means, change what needs to be changed. I'm NOT arguing against
changing the config. I just want to point out some consequences for users.
