We don't provide the user with enough information to make a rational choice, so the choice is random (based on name, appearance of desktop, sequence in the list, etc.)
This is a fair point -- if someone is coming in *completely new.
The question is, how many users are coming in *completely new?
Anybody who's used Linux before will have a desktop they're familiar with or like, so the default selection is not an issue - they will choose what they want. The only people for whom it makes a difference are those with no previous experience of Linux or the sensitive souls who feel slighted if their preference isn't pre-selected.
