Think of the FSF as a lawyer who you get to write an agreement for you. They wrote a license that thousands of Free Software projects around the world use to distribute their software.
Not exactly true : we use FSF this way. But we COULD give the copyright to FSF. FSF told everywhere that "they can sue anyone stealing a GPL software, but only if THEY hold the copyright".

You are right, we could assign copyright to the FSF .. I dont think anyone is proposing to do that though are they?
