"$ apt-cache show gnome-desktop-environment

Description: The GNOME Desktop Environment
 This the GNOME Desktop environment, a graphical interface to use on
your Debian system. It includes a wide range of applications, including
programs for email, messaging, word processing, financial accounting,
conferencing, and more."

Which doesn't depend on gnome-office ...=20

"There is no reason why a gnome desktop with only games or only mail
programs shouldn't be possible." -> that's gnome-desktop-environment
