Dude.  GNOME is not about "Marketing" or promoting "Alternatives to
Windows".

GNOME is about free software, and it is an integral part of the GNU
project.  I am not quite sure where you got a different impression.

Whether a user is confused or not about GNU, is completely
irrelevant.   It is then a good chance to educate users and tell them
why free software is important, and why freedom is important.
