From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

As other people have commented: why would GTK be so important? A terminal should be a bare window, without any decoration. At least that's what I use: first setting I check in a terminal is "disable window title" or something like that.
Tabs, https://visor.binaryage.com/ visor mode terminals, integration with desktop themes, OS auth for allowing sudo, (e.g. biometrics). While you may prefer a bare minimum terminal, there’s plenty of valid use cases for a terminal with good integration to the desktop environment.
So that I can switch theme of most portion of system in a go.
