Well, entries like "Debian desktop environment" do not have a good explanation in tasksel either. Unless you look at the apt information or the debian wiki, there is not much for the user to find out about it. Gnome is the default of it but still listed separately, adding more confusion. That's at least my experience with it. There could be more guidance for the user in tasksel itself, avoiding the need for a different media to get better information.
