I thought things are distributed and are replicated across servers (much like how distributed storage and computing works)

yes, exactly! when you use the internet, you don't manually choose which ISPs to route through. you can pick which DNS servers to use but you don't have to. when you use youtube, netflix, or facebook, you don't choose which CDNs to use.
