Microsoftkqf_chris Hello! We've been discussing your question with the team.
They've said "The ForceSync policy’s primary goal was to avoid showing “Turn on sync” prompts to users during browser start-up. And the Sync toggle remains ON and disabled so that when new sync data types are enabled, they get turned on by default for users without again having to show any consent prompts."
