Why would a distro have GTK in the first place?

More reasonably, binary GUI apps should not expect more than the window system, on elf/linux, wayland with a legacy fallback to x11. It means, the GFX toolkit is an application choice on top of the windowing system. Binary GUI apps have to distribute it... they have to distribute their own version which would not conflict with the version installed on the user system... if any...
