Well, there's two things you're overlooking though.
For one, the sysadmin still has the power to just
delete those system-wide gtkrc's, and the scripts make
sure to not put them back on any future upgrades of
the package. So even though at first install the
action is to make Geramik default, the sysadmin has a
choice, and their choice is honored forever.
Secondly, having Geramik as the default system-wide
theme does *not* stop users from picking a different
Gtk+ theme for themselves.

Yep.
