My question was not about discussion toolkits,
but about our opinion about Thuban and QGIS.
I want to know what makes people prefer one over the other.
Naturally I can't and never would question reasons that I don't know.

From your answer I now conclude that your main reason
was the toolkit of QGIS: Qt.

Also discussions about advantages and disadvantages of toolkits
regarding specific tasks are quite useful. 
I cannot imagine a better base for good decisions.
So general discussions about toolkits that you've referred to
are not specific enough for GRASS GUIs.
