--- Comment #2 from Darren Tucker <dtucker at dtucker.net> ---
Why would the protocol require a round-trip?

The fsync extension operates on an open file handle
(https://cvsweb.openbsd.org/src/usr.bin/ssh/PROTOCOL section 3.6),
there can be multiple requests in flight from client to server
(https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-secsh-filexfer-02 section 3)
and the server must process the operations on a given file handle in
order  (filexfer-02 section 6.1), so a client should be able to send
open,write,write,write,fsync,close, then process all of the replies.
