Just to elaborate a little: Sphinx doesn't have the ability to edit fields for records (at least, not yet - it looks like the next version will support it in some shape, but not yet sure if that'll fit with how TS uses it). So yes, the only way to get changed/new data in is to reindex.
The deltas approach means that all changes get stored in separate indexes (between full re-indexing - because you'll still need to do that regularly), and these small indexes are fast and easy to process, and so the overhead of doing that after each change is bearable (at least, in some situations).
