If those servers are in local network, the root distance might be
smaller than the shifts in the PPS offset (e.g. due varying CPU load
causing different delays in processing of the interrupt), which would
cause the disagreement.

Instead of the trust option I'd suggest to add "delay 2e-3" or some
other suitable value to increase its interval and more reliably
overlap with the NTP sources.
