Except when it doesn't and then the ability to survive on fewer
visible/good satellites without going into holdover is most welcome.

No, you can very much use it to inform a consumer of the PPS in realtime
about the sub-quantization phase shift and have the PLL take this error
refinement into account.

No, it's in there, look for the UBX-TIM series of messages, specifically
TOS and TP. However, it talks about offsets of the time pulse, not a
sawtooth.
But there's a more specific description for series 6 timing receivers,
most if not all of which will be applicable to your series 8 module as
well:

_Any_ error in the surveyed position will show up as timing error that
also depends on the GPS constellation. I think Lady Heather provides a
special plot to map these deviations to the GPS sky tracks.
