It's not reliability, just accuracy. I didn't go with the DS3231 because they are about 18 times the price as DS1307. It's cheaper to buy the DS3231 on a module but I just want the chip. Also the DS3231 chip is iffy to get right now with the chip shortage.
Because 99% of users will be connected to a network I can get the date/time every day or whatever and update the DS1307. If I remember correctly I think DS1307 can lose 5-10 minutes a year.
