I'd honestly prefer they use the GNOME one (maintained closer to the
source, etc.) unless there are speicfic problems with it.

20k of code vs 70k of code? Is that really something worth caring about?
(Yes, the GNOME PK agent ends up being about 300k installed, but given
that it's translated into 30+ languages as opposed to lxpolkit's < 10...)

That's not a useful decision rationale.
