I don't care about the time my computer is set to. I care about the confidence interval between the time displayed on the webpage and ground truth.

The webpage currently says my computer is over 1 second off from the truth. In the old site, it wouldn't tell me anything about my computer. It would tell me a confidence interval between the website's time and the truth, and it was usually about .1 seconds IIRC.
