Here's systemctl status ntp output, still showing clock unsync error:

That error is when you started the ntp daemon. It has no data at that point, it will never sync. It's expected.

That output from ntpq looks good. You just need to wait for more peers with greater reach values.

My question now is do I really need these? or was my original ntp.conf was just fine without these...

Internet time servers for sanity

server 0.pool.ntp.org iburst prefer
server 1.pool.ntp.org iburst
server 2.pool.ntp.org iburst
server 3.pool.ntp.org iburst

I would keep some external servers defined. More sources in agreement is going to make ntp happier, faster
