That's a good point, and required time precision seems like it should be proportional to the velocity of the signal being investigated. I had some bad experiences trying to use gps time for RDF, but that might not apply here.

icantly less than 100 microseconds. As the sound travels
about 3 cm in that time, time synchronization errors have a
negligible effect on the system.
Sounds like it?
The anti-sniper systems I knew about already (Boomerang) are that single-site setup where time sync isn't a problem. The "Individual Gunshot Detector" sounds more like what you're describing.

Still looking for more detail, but that sounds like a local ToA > pass up angles for triangulation type deal.
