It's not really clear to me how PoS is providing any security in Decred above that provided by the PoW.

If a single entity is able to get 51% of the hashrate why can't they effectively control which PoS tickets are selected?

Since the overall reward & transaction fees are distributed between both PoS & PoW, it seems to follow that at there will be fewer PoW miners resulting in less overall security vs. a pure PoW protocol.
