The definition of kitchen that may be coming to us all soon is not adequate. 'Preparing' food does not make a kitchen. I prepare food on my deck, sometimes when watching a game in my family room, sometimes I shuck corn in my family room. When we have a large party, we will set up in the basement. That definition is not going to work in itself and needs to be left out or changed.
How often does the preparation have to occur, once a day, once a week, once a month, once a year, once?
When those people move into the house and use the desk area as a desk, I would be surprised to see food preparation performed there.
So Would a GFCI really be needed there, and if so why not the rest of the house - just in case.
