Yesyesyesyesyes.

The implication, as any INTELLIGENT person would discern, is that
any PC that is running GNU/Linux will drift in both the hardware
clock and the system clock.

The original question was: "How much drift?"

But you cannot answer because you don't control your own system.
Your distro does all the work.  You are just a helpless observer.

I should also ask: "Does the clock correction include leap seconds?"

Again, you cannot answer.  You could not ever know if your system time
includes leap seconds or not.

You are BLIND and HELPLESS.  Your distro is your guide dog:
