This echoes the "couldn't you just replicate Dropbox with x + y + z ..." mindset of the past.

Why the past?

I tried to use Dropbox but it just didn't have what I wanted it to have. So, I find it to be not only replaceable, but awfully inferior to the x+y+z-style solutions.

Of course it does. But you get to keep your data for yourself.
