Isn't that really a discoverability problem?

I could imagine having menu items pointing to best-in-class
applications which are not actually installed. Selecting the menu
item would bring up a box asking you if you want to install it.

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."
