I 99% agree with you, but it depends. For Wayland, Xfce or LXQt (both with labwc as the WM) should also be great.
If you are not considering streamlined support or inital ease of use, Void Linux does its job very well. It has 3 DE editions on the live ISOs: GNOME, KDE, and Xfce.
As for the KDE tools, you can use them in any DE; GNOME specifically will clash with the KDE look, but I don't see how that would be a problem with Cinnamon, Xfce, or LXQt. Do note that, at least on my laptop, KDE is very slow (it makes Windows 10 feel instant, in comparison); haven't had trouble with Xfce.
