imho, I don't see any reason why one DE should be prefered to one an
other. There will be people working on GNOME or KDE or whatever. Mageia
is handled by a community so this give the possibility to have versions
with KDE or GNOME installed (or something else). We have choices so why
should it be reduced to no choice at all ?

As regards having it as default/"prefered" choice, it's something else...
