Only because that's what's mostly focused on. We already accept that Worlds are pocket realities, that combined with them having their own time axis in general as stated in KH3D and KHDR, and their nature clearly making them bigger than a planet minimally (such as having their own sun, being originated from the division of a infinite space in themselves and several other implications) leads into them being way bigger than that, and so qualify as universes as the meaning of "planet" in "Sekai" doesn't fit here, compared to the "universe" (which it can also mean as explained in the blog) one.Okay, fine. Because the plot doesn’t extend more than a planet. They’re worlds inside a universe, with exceptions. We know for certain that Deep Space is it’s own universe, and probably whatever Jack Skellington’s place is called, as well as many others. But Destiny Islands is just an archipelago in a planet in a universe. A universe that the Heartless didn’t consume. Neverland is literally just London. Finally, they’re presented as planets. Every time. I’ll attest that they’re not to scale, obviously. Agrabah is a prime example. Even more in the Pirates of the Caribbean world. But doesn’t change that they’re primarily planets.
Destiny Islands is just a part of its space (universe), and the same applies to the other cases you've brought up. We don't need everything to go into the middle of space to rate them as universes if there's connotations to claim their size is of one.
Again, we can't treat Japanese as we would with English, context matters, and simply put, the context and several other factors lead into them fitting as universes.
There's also this Universe criteria they meet perfectly, and @DarkDragonMedeus even said he's fine with that applying here.
