So, I just ran a test on a system which has chrony installed and it
showed the same problem as you were seeing.

Since systemd-time-wait-sync.service doesn't seem to really work with
alternative implementations, I wonder if it wouldn't be better to err on
the safe safe and do the following:
- Rename it systemd-timesyncd-wait-time-sync.service
- Add Requires=systemd-timesyncd.service to
systemd-timesyncd-wait-time-sync.service
- Update the documentation and remove the section which says that it
sort-of supports alternative implementations as fallback.

Regards,
Michael
