As far as I know, serverless isn't just FaaS. As you pointed out FaaS is to connect things, nothing more.

For me serverless is pay-as-you go pricing, no over- or under-provisioning and last but not least, no server-management.

Lambda, DynamoDB, S3, AppSync, Device Farm, Aurora, etc. are all serverless.

Yep. Lambda may be functions-as-a-service, which is a great name for it, but the whole shebang is more than that. Thus, serverless.

How would you distinguish it from "PaaS"?

The "serverless" model frees you of more tasks than PaaS, like capacity planning and scaling, also it's more flexible and fault tolerant.
