If so, the user would get the old app release, instead of a new release. I suspect that it's not a diff, but just the purchase meta-data and that the app is downloaded again, but I might be mistaken here, while I'm definitively not mistaken with the user data. Again, you synced without accidentally deleting the app first. Such a sync is not a backup. A real backup would allow to restore data, even if the app was accidentally deleted and then reinstalled.
