My sense in reading the new user manual was not that it was seen as the default sync, but rather that Kobo was acknowledging its usefulness and ubiquity amongst more advanced users. From what I can tell, sync across devices (for example mobile phones) is only possible for books loaded through the desktop, or by WiFi, and purchased from Kobo books.

Kobo has been very open about its commitment to making ebooks available in a variety of ways and on a varietry of devices. Championing Calibre just seems to make sense given their overall philosophy.
