I’m under the impression that we are starting with decentralized ledgers with traditional banking. The problem solved by blockchain is the synchronization/balance of payments between the ledgers by just making everyone track the same unified ledger.

You got it right. Blockchains emulate a centralized server, whereas the current financial system is heavily decentralized and hence slow.
