Maybe 24 hours notification in advance did not seem long enough for the smear interval. I doubt it, because I would not really like the time to differ from the real time for more than a day.
Yeah, there are some regularity requirements in some industries that the server clocks are within 100ms of UTC (or, at least, that's how internal audit have interpreted the regulations where I work).
Allowing the clock to drift by a second would normally be bad, but I guess it wouldn't matter on a non-business day. (Well, non-business for 95% of the company where this matters - some areas were still open).
