It is not a matter making more sense, both are semantically equivalent.

If you do not care that the sync was not done, then you did not need to sync in the first place. Syncing is about guaranteeing the user that the data is safe; if you ignore the information that it was not done, then you are not guaranteeing it. Regards, -- Nicolas George
