We may have been too aggressive in removing it. I think we could 
include it by default if it had a first-run dialog that briefly 
explains what a package is, and that package management is an advanced 
tool for system administrators. Maybe with a link that launches GNOME 
Software.

Alternatively, we could leave it uninstalled by default, and add a 
"cross-reference" to it from GNOME Software's first-run dialog, or 
simply by making it a featured app. Just throwing out ideas here....
