Because I consider GNOME
* fully featured: It offers everything a user needs and has a
large ecosystem of applications you can install if you really
miss something. When it comes to features, only KDE can compete
with GNOME.
* simple to use: The default user experience is straight forward.
KDE offers more configuration option, but configuration is ten
times harder.
* tightly integrated: GNOME developers are trying to design a user
experience, that is not only a desktop but a whole system.
And last but not least we need manpower for it's development and
maintenance. And this is where no other desktop can beat GNOME.

The word "default" implies that we need to make a choice and it there
can only be a single default. "The Fedora workstation" is supposed to be
a unique, consistent user experience.
For me the discussion is not if we need a default or not, I think we hav
ea consensus in the working group. And I don't care if the default is
GNOME or something else, I care about having integrating all desktops
into Fedora without getting in each others way.
Best regards,
Christoph
