i'd say, in a way, we have 'informally' agreed upon a default desktop.
the flagship edition of ubuntu? GNOME.
the flagship edition of fedora? GNOME.
RHEL? GNOME.
installing debian with its defaults? GNOME.
while KDE ships on a few distros by default, and Mint ships with Cinnamon as its flagship, by-and-large, GNOME is what you're gonna get from your "major" distributions.
