Read it again. The Wi-fi button in Control Center disables wi-fi communication with access points and other devices (with the exception of special iCloud crap like Handoff and whatnot). It further states you can still hard shut off Wi-fi and Bluetooth by flipping the switch in the Settings app.

Does it make a whole lot of sense? No. Has Apple removed the ability to "truly" shut these wireless interfaces off? No.
