I liked having a WWVB receiver in my mix, but all the hardware appliances (at least those offering OCXO or Rubidium oscillator options) seem to have rejected it in favor of GPS only. I can only conclude that either vendors think options like WWVB are a dead end or there's no demand for GPS alternatives.

Both GPS and WWVB are over-the-air. There has been concern expressed of a bad actor spoofing or jamming GPS. Comparatively speaking, jamming or spoofing WWVB is a trivial joke.
