They complement each other pretty well though. Wallets can save the deterministic GCS filters in the same way as headers, which means blocks can be re-scanned if necessary (importing new keys, etc) offline. Bloom filters are good for limiting mempool bandwidth as well as controlling the fraction of each block that is downloaded. On the BTC chain that last point doesn't matter as so much, but on chains with larger blocks I expect that clients will ultimately end up using both filter schemes for exactly that reason.
