If NSIncrementalStore worked as advertised, there would be no need to persist the entire data set to a user’s device.
Which works fine as long as users have always-on connectivity, with reasonably good bandwidth & latency, and the data they need to work with is not too huge.
That's not to pick on you or the particular solution, just to point out that one reason that there is not a single good solution in this space is that there is no one-size-fits-all solution simply because there are too many variables to allow that.

Agreed. Probably assuming always-on connectivity, since people usually have 3G or 4G. Do a decent job with managing bandwidth demands and controlling the number of requests/responses, and in cases where the bandwidth/latency is not good enough for a decent user experience, oh well...
