The other ways require you to trust the operators of other nodes you sync with.

The only between-nodes trust blockchain relieves you of is trust in the history of a multiparty transaction log.

A blockchain doesn't prevent individual parties from lying about things only they would know about -- if that's what's on your chain, you still need trust.
