The sync-ui cannot configure local sync. Did you set up the local sync
manually and then change it in the sync-ui?

Surely not.
The commands that I used were quoted in the 1st letter.

What I mean is that *by docs* one-way-from-server is discouraged, but *sync-ui* produces exactly sync=one-way-from-server if you turn off "Send changes to Google". That sounds odd.

This is similar to configuring a phone for direct syncing, which also
has the "peerIsClient" flag set. The UI should be able to reverse the
data flow direction in this case, but I have never tested it for local
syncs.

Not the case.

I'm lucky Google has a tiny time-machine behind the "Restore contacts" command.

From the UI:

[...]
From the command line:

Please forgive my dumbiness.
