One reason to consider Gnome over KDE is if they're thinking about writing some custom apps. If they want to release the code for these under a BSD license or leave them closed-source their choice is either a) to pay $2000/developer or b) use GTK. If they're concerned about money GTK is much more appealing than QT. In which case it would make more sense to use Gnome as their desktop.
Another possibility may just be that Gnome has a simpler and--in my opinion--more consistant interface. I've found that people new to Linux tend to pick up Gnome a little better than KDE.
