A further update on this: It seems the sync stalling out indefinitely wasn't entirely down to the collections but instead a cruddy modem.
Since you replaced the modem, everything is working again yes?

Yes. Syncing is much faster now and have had zero failures.

That's good that it was a rather simple fix. I remember going to the Comcast store to get the modem swapped when Comcast upper or Internet speed and we needed a different modem.

Some research indicates that modems tend to start degrading around 4-5 years, mine was a few years older than that. Additionally I believe it might've been affected by the Intel Puma6 issues.

Yup. Any little network glitch and the sync gets stuck and sucks battery until you reboot or it times out. Frequently it doesn't time out.

Good to know: I changed my modem recently, too, but I didn't try again.
I'll try with my new Kobo as soon as I'll put my hands on it

(I sideloaded everything I bought, but I was too lazy to put the bought copies in Kobo's archive and I fear that I'd end up with 2x copies of everything I bought since last summer if the sync were to work )

Yeah, it's easy to end up with double-copies.
