macOS comes with calendar, address book, and I assume email.

Windows 10 comes with email, address book, and calendar.

I haven't used it in a long time but I would be surpised if Gnome
doesn't include those apps as well.

iOS comes with email, address book, calendar and I assume Android does
as well.

Thus it would be very unusual for a desktop not to include those
applications.

Yes, some users will have their own preferences.  But a surprising
number of people simply use whatever the OS/Desktop comes with.

Both I assume, with the inherent compromises that brings.

The big difference however is that the experienced user will have the
knowledge on how to customise the desktop to their liking, which a
more ordinary user who is happy to use whatever comes with the desktop
won't.
