"More efficient" how? At saving developer time? At producing shippable end products? At debugging? Will using GTK result in a better product that increases the end-user's "efficiency" more? Or will it really result in the developer shipping a product with 1/10th the features, or nothing at all?

Funny how you mentioned nothing of the computing resources required to run any of these. Sometimes it's alright to spend more time creating a product when the end result uses less CPU and less memory. It's not all or nothing.
If it makes no notisable difference to the user and cost you more time, you are just wasting time that could have been spend better on improving the users experiance.
