No it's being developed by a bunch of people based upon what they know, what they believe, the values of that community and the external evidence they see. One problem with people jumping up and down about specific little trivia is that if you look generically at the evidence for such things its the 0.00001% making all the noise. The rest who like it, don't care, don't like it but don't care too much and don't like it but install the extension, don't bother ranting on mailing lists. Gnome certainly has a rather insular and siege mentality "with us or the enemy" mentality in places but that's a different issue. All desktops have silly corner cases some people rant about and most people just forget about with use. Things like dragging disks to the trash can to eject them on MacOS, using the "Start" menu to stop the computer in Windows and so on.
