Testing is not very easy for me. I'm an undergraduate having classes
to attend, you know.

Sugar's wiki shouldn't be a place for distribution recommendation
and/or debate. We'd respect users' origin choices as much as possible.
Personally, I don't like distribution switch recommendation. Can
anyone prove or disprove whether Trisquel offers practical advantage
over Ubuntu with regard to Sugar installation.

AFAIK, Trisquel inspired the author of Sweets. This can be mentioned
in the Ubuntu page, but it has nothing to do with distribution switch.
I just knew Fedora-based SoaS before noticing similar, probably
better, Trisquel-based TOAST. TOAST should be useful for anyone who
can use a x86 virtual/real machine. It can be mentioned in Ubuntu page
because Ubuntu users may expect Ubuntu like command line rather than
Fedora command line. TOAST has nothing to do with distribution switch
as well.

Trisquel's page is not satisfactory also. But my focus would limit to
Ubuntu page currently.

For Ubuntu Sugar Remix, I notice that their mailing list already have
had spams for some times. It seems that the origin team is not there
any more. Maybe I should try to ask "mainstream" Ubuntu people
directly.
