Lennart has stated very clearly, that if someone where to propose some other publicly available server, that he would be happy to put that down instead. Also note, that the reporter didn't write "don't use this, we can't handle the load", but "don't use this, weird stuff will happen to your server". But yes, I agree, Googles NTP servers should be removed as a default. But a vendor pool also isn't a solution apparently. Luckily, there are people actively working on a PR to simply have no default. So everyone should just calm down and give the issue a while to resolve itself, instead of venting here on HN.
