I think the fact that the synchrodyne never became at all popular

normal double
sideband AM.
Now appearing on alt.binaries.pictures.radio
Syncrhodyne three tube receiver from the April 1951 edition of
Radio News.
Looks more like the article came from Radio Electronics than from Radio
News, no way of confirming the April 1951 date.
The synchrodyne schematic never appeared on ABPR
when I looked out for it.
Too bad, it's an Australian design from "down under".
