Maybe you want to lookup the definition of Paternalism (I had to do that):
Paternalism is the interference of a state or an individual with another person, against their will, and defended or motivated by a claim that the person interfered with will be better off or protected from harm.
You said gnomy paternalism. If I then read above definition, I fail to understand that at first you mention paternalism, which also includes forcing people against their will. Then in a followup, you mention you're not forced?
I presume maybe your understand or Paternalism or the one I found via Google (2nd link) is not in sync with what it really means.
To be 100% clear: No issues with suggestions that GNOME should listen to users (think we try, but that is a different discussion :) ).
