The primary benefit is theres no post-hoc reconciliation you need to do where you re-write all the foreign keys and object ids. It greatly streamlines the entire process, and lets you eliminate a lot of code / potential bugs.

I found it make far easier to see what object are candidates for sync, and to know the original row in the server.

I think makes a diference if exist a master database or if is peer-to-peer..

Yeah peer-to-peer is a different scenario. I'm assuming traditional client-server.
