rclone: a command-line program to manage files on cloud storage.
The author needs to ask themselves: in this cloud technology stack, is there POSIX involved somewhere lower down, where I can't access it? The answer is, of course, "yes". The sort of cloud storage systems described all run on top of POSIX APIs. They provide convenience (cost efficiency is more debatable) compared to the POSIX alternative, but that's because they exist at an entirely different conceptual layer (hence the presence of POSIX anyway, just buried).
Your point about surfacing a POSIX that's actually there but hidden and thus visible to low-level Amazon employees building the S3 service which makes it invisible to S3 end customers is true but isn't the the point of the article. The author is saying there are motivations for a POSIX-like api visible also the end user.
So your explanation of stack looks like 2 layers: POSIX api <-- AWS S3 built on top of that
Author's essay is actually talking about 3 layers: POSIX <-- AWS S3 <-- POSIX
That's why the blog post has the following links to POSIX-on-top-of-S3-objects :

And apparently apart from modern coreutils using that, it is mostly gentoo users hitting the bugs in lseek.

I know that cryfs[1] is resilient to at least the first of these, and possibly the second as well. I don't know if cryfs allows to modify the base directory while the filesystem is online, if it does then it might already be a better solution for syncthing, if you only care about Linux.
On the flip side syncthing could incorporate cryfs's base directory format instead of their home-grown one.

> I wondered for a while if docker could make a fake /proc/cpuinfo
This exists: https://github.com/lxc/lxcfs
lxcfs is a FUSE filesystem that mocks /proc by inferring cgroup values in a way that makes other applications and libraries work without having to care about whether it runs in a container (to the best of its ability - there are definitely caveats).
One such example is that /proc/uptime should reflect the uptime of the container, not the host; additionally /proc/cpuinfo reflects the number of CPUs as a combination of cpu.max and cpuset.cpus (whichever the lower bound is).
As others also mentioned, inferring the number of CPUs could also be done using the sched_getaffinity syscall - this doesn't depend on /proc/cpuinfo, so depending on the library you're using you might be in a pickle.
I've been using ifuse on Linux for years.
https://github.com/libimobiledevice/ifuse
I type "ifuse /mnt/iphone" and there is a DCIM/###APPLE dir with the images and videos where I use "cp -a" to copy the files to my computer
