I have nothing at all that needs Sync: NO Overdrive, Kobo Library, Kobo app or other Kobo device. Sync should ONLY sync stuff. Kobo would know my device account has no related Kobo Library, Kobo app or other Kobo eReader, so therefore any SYNC related to Kobo is wrong.
I've no idea how Overdrive works, it's for libraries? The libraries here (this part of Ireland) don't have eBooks at all and audio books are on CD.

Yes, the Kobo server knows that you don't have these things. But, how does the device know this until it tries to sync and finds nothing? If you decided to buy a book from Kobo, rather than the crappily formatted books from Smashwords, you would be screaming at the top of your voice that Kobo was crap because they didn't send the book to the device. And please, don't attempt to deny that.
And the sync is finding updates to firmware and dictionaries. And no matter what you think, that is a valid thing to do during the sync.
