Right this is true if Synchronization is enabled (default).

Right, because You disabled synchronization (see above)

This is partially true. Please read thread about BGP DETERMINISTIC-MED
and read http://www.cisco.com/warp/customer/459/bgp-med.html
ans http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/459/37.html

Only If You have Sync enabled (which is by default)
do no-sync and forget about syncronization in best path selection process
