I think you are putting too much emphasize on "first-timers" and seem to
be forgetting the "Linux distro switcher-users". For them, easily
finding the DE they know from their so-far used distro and easily
switching between alternative DEs would be an important feature.

Last time I checked, people were fully able to switch DE after
installation.
For advanced users it's possible to switch the DE - For beginners, I feel it's close to impossible.

Did this point change,

It did change insofar, as it has become increasingly difficult.

or is it too hard to do for a
regular linux user, cause maybe that would be the point to improve ?

Keep in mind that to get to the point of installing an "alternative-only DE", in current Fedora, you normally first have a full blown Gnome3 installed, which is close to impossible to get rid of.
