Plasma does not ship any web browsers:

You confuse the DE with the applications released by KDE.
Just because the KDE community makes one or in many cases even more than one 
application of a certain kind (e.g. several music and media players), any of 
them is a default anywhere.

So, Juk instead of Amarok then and phonon-vlc instead of phonon-gstreamer?
No. It's the distributor's responsibility to pick defaults best suited for its 
user base. Consistent themes from boot splash to the desktop wallpaper is a 
very common area of distro customization and Fedora does that as well.
If you don't like customizations by the distributor, maybe Gentoo or Arch are 
better suited for you..
