Because that's not the logic. It does not discriminate between how many
files are left. It just notices that after a sync run, all files are
gone. This was implemented to protect from user errors on server and
client side, as well as errors in the sync logic. We did not add a
threshold, because there is no useful value (when is it ok? If only 5
files are left? 1? 10? 100?).

There is currently no option to disable this behavior.
