Isn't that just overcomplicating things for no reason? Radicale provides WebDAV endpoints that clients (including DAVx5 on Android) can just connect to, to synchronize calendars and contacts. All of this setup seems to just do all the sync part manually through Syncthing rather than just use Radicale's built-in functionality.

Syncthing is a server. You're replacing the server part of Radicale with another server software, which comes with extra overhead and complexity.

Wrong, Syncthing is peer-to-peer.
