The mission statement of Workstation Working Group: "The Fedora Workstation working group aims to create a reliable, user- friendly and powerful operating system for laptops and PC hardware. The system will primarily be aimed at providing a platform for development of server side and client applications that is attractive to a range of developers - from hobbyists and students to developers working in corporate environments." It's a group that focuses on building a desktop OS based on GNOME, yes, that involves packaging of a sizable part of the GNOME stack, but that doesn't mean that it's their job and obligation to package (any) GNOME software.
