"system apps" don't use GTK depending on your definition of a system
application. Many desktop apps use GTK (and several others uses QT or
some other toolkit) and that doesn't make them desktop environment at
all.  GTK apps are written for GNOME, Xfce, LXDE etc which is a very
clear demonstration of the fact that GTK apps are not desktop
environment specific.
