I've also installed debian testing last week on one of my computers and it does have gnome as default.
As to the "cleanliness" of Debian I agree 100%. I use testing on my daily laptop for last 8 years or so without reinstall. I treat it as a rolling release and it works great.
I would like to use testing also on PBP but I think it will brake some optimizations. To actually run it - we could use a list of optimizations that were done to factory image that comes with new PBP. Unfotunately such a list is not available anywhere. Unless I'm missing something.
AS4000 :
That was a day or two after Buster released,
But I was back at the Debian site last night and saw nothing pertaining to Gnome being in-compible.
In general Gnome should works well in Debian Buster (and is the default desktop environment) however for RK3399 specifically then a very recent version of panfrost will also be required for Gnome to work and AFAIK this is only available in Debian Bullseye (testing).
I can certainly confirm that all works well for me with Debian Bullseye (with the v5.4 kernel from tsys).
