It does only means you own the system. Not that you can claim to be a sysadmin. I own my car. I am not a mechanic, but I anyway have the *authorizations* to tinker it. It's what root, or to be more precise, uid=0 means in linux OSes.

the difference is, you don't have a "mechanic" for Debian, you ARE the mechanic. YOU make it better ( or worse), so yes you ARE the sysadmin. your other users cannot maintain the system, they cannot update the system, they cannot destroy the system. You can update it, maintain it, destroy it, all by yourself.
