Pros
Pro Nicer user interface when using PyGi
Creating cross platform enterprise apps with PyGi and with the help of Gtk Themes makes them look great.
Know any positive aspects of this option?
Cons
Con Terrible integration
Looks and feels like an alien on all other platforms than GNOME.
Con Promotes Wayland as the standard X11 server on Unix
Lets face it, Wayland is not a replacement for XORG since Wayland works currently only in GNOME and there are many issues. Some desktops and window managers will never get ported to Wayland and it is not available to all Unix and Unix-like systems. X11 on the other hand is available for almost everything, so it will be available for the next decade or even longer.

I have to say when I make GNOME focused applications it is fantastic, One problem, it looks super alien on anything non-GNOME based. If the desktop isn't GTK based it looks bad, which included Windows as will not work, but looks GREAT on most Linux distributions.
