Seems like the primary assumption is that Sybill only happens vertically (one node being taken as multiple), but in reality Sybil is usually a per-actor problem, i.e. a CDN could be by a single actor created to ensure minimal hops thereby creating an effective Sybill attack.
Disclaimer: this is my read of their system it might have different counter-measures/assumptions.
