I've been using Trisquel 9 for some weeks and it works like a charm. Thanks
to everyone involved in this project.
You can chroot from a live session. Boot from a live CD and open a terminal.
Then, assuming your root partition is /dev/sda1
$ sudo su
# TARGET=/media/sda1
# mkdir -p $TARGET
# mount /dev/sda1 $TARGET
# mount --bind /dev $TARGET/dev
# mount --bind /dev/pts $TARGET/dev/pts
# mount --bind

Mate desktop has brisk menu, although it's in very early stages. It's similar
to xfce whisker menu but much lighter (written in C).
So, one day it will be available in trisquel.
https://github.com/solus-project/brisk-menu
Eventually, it will work. ;)
Remember that trisquel 8 it's in alpha version. I wouldn't say that unmet
dependencies with a desktop environment other than mate are strange in this
development state.
In the case of python we have virtual environments (python-virtualenv and
python3-virtualenv). I use it only for pelican but I can say it's a great way
to isolate different python or library versions.

Mate and GNOME are the only desktop environments that fit the accessibility
support required by trisquel. So they are the only possible choices for the
default trisquel version.
You can reinstall them.
The same icons and gtk themes will also work with mate. The window manager
theme (mostly the window title bar) is what is different, as far as I know.
Regarding menu entries you can modify the corresponding .desktop files to be
shown or hidden in specific desktop environments using

I don't think DE are fragile. Especially xfce is pretty stable. Did you
install xfce from trisquel repositories?

I mainly use xfce, but from time to time I install GNOME (with GNOME-Shell)

sudo apt-get reinstall trisquel
will reinstall all the programs in the metapackage.
But if you have modified application configurations you should remove the
corresponding config files, usually in ~/.some_app or ~/.config/some_app, to
reset them to their original state.

My favourite DE is xfce, but I think trisquel should use GNOME Shell as
default. It's modern, beautiful and good in accesibility.
Maybe developers try to mimic windows layout in order to make easier the
change from windows to trisquel, but Trisquel default desktop should not be
less
