I think they’re forked form the same source, Bittorrent Sync, so function the same under the hood. I wasn’t suggesting Resilio did something Syncthing didn’t. I’ve just found Resilio easier to use for client devices. And that OP was concerned about losing files from syncing.
The only odd behaviour I’ve had with Resilio, is when hosted on Unraid, random files on the SMB share sometimes have database names on large folders with lots of files (RSH-78254 for example), but when synced to remote devices, the filenaming is then accurate. I’ve been meaning to spin up Syncthing to see if it does the same, but as Resilio has yet to lose me any files, I’m sticking with it.
Have to use Resilio due to my seedbox but use syncthing to sync my game saves for emulating.
Yeah, syncthing is a bit of a pain to setup in comparison to resilio.
But I feel like Syncthing can do more things better

Could be a Docker issue as well I guess.
