You say you're not getting a Login GUI and you say nothing is set for auto-login.  It
just boots to a blank screen.  With that being the case, I can't for the life of me
think how this can be in the logs you've posted.

Although this is "wrong" since you've said you've removed all gnome bits it should
not affect things.  I found that on a pure KDE system if you login with that info it
will just overwrite the info for the Session with plasma.desktop and bring up KDE. 
Also, even if I have bogus entries in the xsession directory it will find that the
Session isn't valid and bring up KDE.

OK, now you are confusing me....

You say....  "because I do not use the Gnome desktop nor do I interactively select it
at the login screen".  But I asked if you get a Login GUI and you've said no.  Now
you talk of a login screen.  

So?

Anyway....   What do you have in /usr/share/xsessions with all of the "gnome bits"
removed.

The feeling I'm getting is that while you think you've removed all of the gnome bits
you really haven't and sddm thinks the default DE is GNOME.

I suppose I may try

dnf group remove "Fedora Workstation"
