In SkySync, using Lynn's account, regardless of GoogleDrive.AllowSharedWithMe setting, JuanFolder1, JuanFolder1/JuanFolder2, JuanFolder1/SubfolderByLynn and JuanFolder1/LynnFolder1 are all considered shared. LynnFolder1 also shows up in her root drive as not shared.

In SkySync, using Juan's account:

1. When GoogleDrive.AllowSharedWithMe is false, JuanFolder1, JuanFolder1/SubfolderByLynn are not considered shared, JuanFolder1/LynnFolder1 and JuanFolder1/JuanFolder2 are considered shared. JuanFolder2 also shows up in his root drive as not shared.
2. When GoogleDrive.AllowSharedWithMe is true, JuanFolder1, JuanFolder1/JuanFolder2, JuanFolder1/SubfolderByLynn and JuanFolder1/LynnFolder1 are not considered shared. JuanFolder2 also shows up in his root drive as not shared.

LynnFolder1 is considered a "shared with me" container thus its share state is on the sharer's side is driven by GoogleDrive.AllowSharedWithMe. The issue is, from Juan's standpoint, we cannot determine whether LynnFolder1 is also located somewhere else on Lynn's drive. The flag gives you the opportunity to decide whether to consider it shared or not so that it can be included or excluded on Juan's transfer job.
