He was deemed not to be the right person to be a sysop, but from what I know, the only difference is that he doesn't have the green tag and isn't a sysop officially. Nope, I don't have all sysop rights: in fact, I have just one sysop-based tools, which is blocking (for obvious reasons). I don't have the ability to delete pages, restore deleted content, edit the interface, protect/unprotect articles, edit protected pages, edit the abuse filters, user rights management and so on. You can see the list of rights I've got here: Special:ListGroupRights.

Also, side note: sysops can access AdminDashboard, SMWAdmin, ProtectSite and can kick/ban chat moderators. I can't do this either. So yeah, I don't have "all the rights that a sysop has". Rollback is a user right I've had for a long time and it's viral, so it's not considered to be a very important user right (as any rollback can grant the right to others).
