The path to decentralization isn't binary. Just because at one point in time, the keys are in one set of pockets, doesn't mean that can't just as easily move to another set of pockets.
In my eyes, the critical thing here is that no single entity can do something such as double spend on the network.
I guess what feels odd is that while so much of the web is co-dependent on different products or services, that is still different from centralized vs. decentralized. So when a network is decentralized, yet the keys to it's main highway remains in the control of one person (or group) that runs a server and manages a domain, it feels a bit contradictory.
