the difference being, the maker of app sync et al. wasn't bothered about the legalities and packaged and released it.

these guys do care and said they probably won't release, so it'l be a while before someone who does want to distribute it shares.

There's a difference though between distributing an installable packaged hack (that would have to have pirated Apple files in it), and posting a "how-to" for those that have access to a 4S and are willing to take the potential legal risk. Say for example, that I own a 4S and a 4, and I want them BOTH to be able to run Siri. There's still a theft of service argument, but it gets much much fuzzier. I don't see any reason why they couldn't publish a how-to that was "for educational purposes only" that cautioned people to "proceed at their own risk".
