Running apt-cache depends ubuntu-gnome-desktop lists, among other things, GNU Make as a recommend. apt-cache depends gnome doesn't list Make.

Why? It doesn't seem like Make and GNOME would be in any way related (apart from their origins at GNU, if I'm not mistaken).

Maximum compatibility for existing sources. Lots of sources out there and most of them need make to compile. So doesn't it make sense to go with maximum compatability?
