I've assumed that the reason the Metro/Modern UI is on the desktop computer version, and why it's the default (boot up to) version, is the opportunity for MS to make money via purchased apps.
If no desktop computer user ever bought an app from the MS Store, I suspect the Metro/Modern UI focus might change. As long as people buy apps via the MS Store for the Metro/Modern UI on a desktop computer, it shall live on on the desktop computer.
