Are you objecting to the idea of having a more seamless experience across your devices in general, or the fact that typical implementations of that idea mean giving your data to a cloud provider, for 'sync' and 'backup' purposes?
If I divide your comment down this line, I agree with you that I don't want anything to do with any of the OSes that do this today, including this one from Microsoft; however, I think it would be great to have a way to seamlessly sync and access my data across devices if it doesn't rely on any external infrastructure (whether p2p, self hosted, etc).
