Description

WooCommerce Product Reviews are basically comments on the product CPT. From what I can tell, the sync module is probably syncing them.

Since product reviews contain personal data, including the reviewer's name and email address, let's NOT sync them until/if we have a reason to.

Research direction

Start by locating the sync module responsible for the WooCommerce product CPT and verify whether Product Reviews are included. Trace the review data path and identify the existing sync tests, if any. Done means product reviews, including reviewer names and email addresses, are excluded from synchronization while other product data continues to sync.
