Why not just run Thunderbird on your windows pc, then? It should synchronize perfectly happily using caldav et al.

Caldav requires the cloud.
To avoid syncing my calendar and contacts to the cloud, I'm using wireguard as a always on VPN on my phone, to connect to a locally running CalDav/CardDav server. Wireguard on Android can be setup to only affect specific apps, so my DavX app is the only one using the VPN.
Hm? We sync our calendars using Nextcloud, but admittedly, that's not everyone's cup of tea.
