I can give you a case:
<flamebait>
if we start using GUI-only solutions for administering the system (see
network-manager, system-config-printer etc), then you will *have to* fallback
to any DE just to be able to repair some bad system.
If, on the other hand, we keep using the Unix/Linux (rather than Windoze)
approach of easily editable text configs and cmdline tools, then a fallback is
indeed useless.
