Good question. I assume you refer to the
ConditionFileIsExecutable=!/usr/sbin/ntpd
etc.

This is a stop-gap, until all NTP services ship a native .service file.
Once they do so they are supposed to declare a
Conflicts=systemd-timesynd.service

Which means, if they are installed (and active), they will take
precedence over systemd-timesynd.service
