I can see a few missing things (correct me if I'm wrong):
1. peer-to-peer sync (no intermediate server)
2. cloud server isn't passive and stateless
No. 2 is very important for scalability. 1 is mostly a nice to have, especially on the WAN, where you can sync directly from, e.g. an iPad to your iPhone.
Both are doable (I did both in HubSync back in 2009).
