I was claiming that both devices are doing the right thing with the current 
broken kernel that doesn't support the falling/clear edge.

I just verified with a scope that the PPS pulse from an Adafruit HAT is 100 
ms wide and starts with a rising edge.

I have an old Uputronics, but it's tie wrapped up on a shelf where I can't 
easily get a scope probe on it.  They use uBlox.  I'm not sure which one.  It 
is unlikely to make any difference.

I couldn't find it.  Grumph.  So change that to "will be in good data sheets."
