Not clear on why something being a server OS should disqualify it from being someone's favorite distro...

You didn't say "favorite distro to use as a desktop". You said "favorite distro".

I do, and I know lots of people who do as well. And yes, I'm reasonably sure me and the rest are in our right mind.
Oh, and has already been pointed out, you asked us what our favorite distro was. "Desktop" wasn't ever mentioned.
