Public bug reported:

The profile menu in Chromium apparently has had the sign in
functionality disabled. When clicking "Add", Chrome takes you to a sign
in page. Chromium has you create/modify profile locally.

I presume this is Google specific code that can't be open sourced. If
that's the case, the UI should make it clear that the sync functionality
isn't available in Chromium - otherwise it looks like a bug to anybody
vaguely familiar with Chrome's sync (which after all is typically used
once in the lifetime of a browser install).
