I've noted this as well.

I've come up with the same issue and gave it much thought. I now think
that what we wish for should be made optional.
Sometimes, you wish to synchronize a temporary installation with your
regular one and I certainly wouldn't want all my mail from the
regularly used installation to be deleted because they aren't present
in the temporary one. How is the synchronisation process supposed to
tell the difference between the two reasons and to decide whether or
not deleting mail from the target installation is the appropriate
thing to do? The only way that could be achieved would be to have an
ongoing synchronisation record that spans synchronisations. I don't
know how easily that can be achieved. So, it all comes down to just
adding and not deleting any messages. I therefore understand why the
limitation is currently there if there's no option to make the target
installation a replica of the source installation.
