When using shared Drives on Google Workspace, your have the option to create shortcuts to another drive. There a re numerous security or ease of use reasons to use this option. You can create a shortcut pointing toward a file or a folder.
By default:
The Cloud Sync Task resolves to the targeted files. meaning:

When syncing Drive B you will get
File2 and Folder3... Again.

Thanks for any input
