Please know that our engineering team has determined that this issue behaves as intended based on the information provided.

Users can do this by going into options and disabling “Desktop and Documents Folders”.

+1 on this request. Until this feature can be turned off separately from iCloud, my company can't upgrade to Sierra for our fleet of Macs.
