Wow. What a complete load of FUD you can spew. GTK is an excellent tool kit. Please let us know what it cannot do that QT can.
The licensing isssue is real. As you said yourself, "You can use a variety of open source licenses". Maybe they may want to use a closed source one.
"paying for a Qt license makes sense, and it is actually what people want". What planet are you from. You may want that but I can garantee you that businessed do not.
"Gnome as a desktop now looks very spartan and just doesn't have the power of KDE at all". Crawal out from under your rock and actually try Gnome. KDE looks like a cluttered childs desktop, and don't even talk about power. They both do the same.
People like you, who have only used KDE and have no idea about Gnome should keep there uninformed opinions to themselves. So you like KDE, Great. Use it, but don't try to tell others that everything else is crap. It makes you look like a fool.
