It wasn't always this easy. 8 or 12 years ago we had to qualify by winning Oceania and THEN by beating the 5th ranked South American team (usually Uruguay).
Then they removed the last step of having to play a South American team and now it's basically top 2 in Oceania qualify. That's us and Japan. Much easier yes, but we'll take it.
