That wasn't his main point which you removed:
"But there is also the audience who are trying out KDE (or Gnome/etc)
for the first time and providing them with an installed base of
software to try / check out is convenient and the right thing to do."

This is an issue about default applcaitons.  As I said above:
"I believe you are missing the point of defaults.... which is to provide as
complete environment as possible out of the box.  Since this is a KDE spin,
we should be providing as complete of a KDE environment as possible.
Users shouldn't be required to go on a treasure hunt to seek out available
KDE applications.  If you don't want to use a KDE default you can easily
either go into settings and change the defaults, remove the package you
don't want, etc."
