Many books are sold without DRM to begin with. If DRM was the only determinant of whether or not you see the "won't sync to cloud" message, then any book bought from Baen or Tor or KDP (and I don't know how many other books as well) would get that error as well.
A book with DRM is exactly the same as a book without DRM, as far as your (matching ID) Kindle is concerned even when factoring in Alf, until you do other changes. Alf does the same decryption that your Kindle does.
Your still not understanding my messages relevant to bookcat's questions. Collections work exactly as they should for me. I never said DRM was the only determinant. I was hypothesizing about a specific case of Amazon purchases sideloaded through their website. And I was clarifying your comments to state that the cloud syncing comment has nothing to do with Wifi on/off and is about whether or not the book that you have sideloaded exists in Amazon's cloud library. This message occurs even when Wi-fi is on. Anyway it doesn't really matter, and I don't think that we need to continue the discussion any further.
