SOLVED Does sync=always also mean sequential drive writes?

[ee21]

Title says it all mostly. I understand the concept of what sync=always means in terms of data in flight and why I would want that enabled on a pool hosting iSCSI targets which contain VM OS disks... However I am still pretty ignorant of how exactly ZFS works, and as such was curious if this also might mean that writes are committed to disk sequentially more so than otherwise...

I ask because I am looking at some enterprise QLC SSDs, which as expected, have a somewhat concerning endurance rating when it comes to random writes in particular:

The option for sync writes has nothing to do with writing to the drive sequentially. Not even related at all.
