This looks exactly like I would expect:

1. Xorg fails to start in the same way as bug 2015386:

   Apr 13 23:35:23 nvidia-dgx-station-c25989 systemd[3916]: Condition check resulted in GNOME Shell on X11 being skipped.

2. Wayland fails to start because the server driver doesn't support it:

   Apr 13 23:35:23 nvidia-dgx-station-c25989 gnome-shell[4072]: Failed to setup: No GPUs found

So this is useful information. It shows:

1. There is a common issue between bug 2015386 and bug 2016193 where systemd can't start Xorg. It's not even trying so this seems like a systemd/environment issue.

2. The crashes in bug 2016193 are Wayland-specific (using NVIDIA desktop drivers). I suspect the customer isn't affected by that.
