e.g an Internet banking app which lets user transfer funds
e.g an ecommerce app in which user does the journey from cart -> checkout -> payment

But in general I agree that there are certain operations in which we should avoid showing loaders / spinners

Yes, it would, but so would any type of failure.

Probably in this case you would give them a notification that there was an error when syncing the state and allow them to try again.

Also, you could store the to-be-synced state in the app until a later time it could succeed.

We undo the object update. Wouldn’t that be a bad user experience?
