You're not missing anything — there's no simple command-line way to force a full Intune sync like the "Sync" button does.
The best you can do is:

But that only works for stuff managed by the Intune Management Extension (like scripts, Win32 apps), not full device sync.
The full sync? Still has to be done through Settings or the Company Portal. Frustrating, but true.
