I think, this is expected, in other words we didn't implement any such function

+1 from @urbenlegend via #11820

It's not obvious to me that #11820 was really the same issue as this. #11820 was about how History Sync only syncs typed URLs. Any pages in the history that come from clicked links — which for many users is the majority of their browsing — are not synced. This is true of all platforms, in all directions of syncing. It would be more useful if History Sync synced all of the history on every device.
