For the record, this is incorrect for -U.  The -U option does not
obtain all default settings, it obtains default _GUI_ settings.  You
can see this for yourself by starting gvim as "gvim -NU NONE" and
then executing ":scriptnames".

The documentation of -U and gui-init is not as clear as it could be
on this point, but towards the bottom of ":help gui-init" it does
say,

    All this happens AFTER the normal Vim initializations, like
    reading your .vimrc file.  See |initialization|.

Also see ":help startup" and note that GUI initialization does not
occur until step #8.

If you wish to start gvim without sourcing any configuration files*,
use

    gvim -Nu NONE

just as you would for vim.

Gary
