Why do people bother piecing together fragile Frankenstein DEs instead of just using GNOME or KDE?

Not having to deal with tranny CoC.

Spite for the lgbt and communist developers of those projects
I'd rather use an inferior alternative than the works of their hands

What Frankenstein DE? It's either a DE (gnome, kde, xfce, lxqt, lumina, etc...) or a WM (fluxbox, icewm, dwm, etc...) and a list of dedicated program.

I use awesome with all widgets and functionality written by me. I control 100% the interface of my desktop, I don't have this problem.

How long did it take you to set up? Don't you get issues when programs create second windows and your WM tries to open them as new tiles?
