Are there any choc dactyl manuform keyboards that I can print myself?
This is a 34 key choc dactyl https://github.com/geoffder/dometyl-keyboard/tree/main/things/dartyl_choc

Are topre considered Ergonomic?
If you are fishing for something weirder, but still Topre, the Dometyl is a Dactyl offshoot that uses rubreh domehs and sliders. I have not tried it myself.

Minimising finger movement, but not the kind of movement you're thinking
You could use domes. https://github.com/geoffder/dometyl-keyboard/ offers some technical advice and links to some products. Complex, and also expensive.

This might be heresy, but...
You're totally not crazy... or at least not alone in this! You may want to have a look at https://github.com/geoffder/dometyl-keyboard/

How to get top plate of Dactyl Manuform without the bulky body that drops down ?
Try "skeletal" designs such as those from bastardkb.com or one generated from dometyl.
-
Don't see many failure posts,
Firstly, please consider a Skeletyl instead of a conventional Dactyl. Skeletyl has a lot less material and so is a lot faster to print. If you need more than 5x3+3 keys, you can customize your own Skeletyl style case as well: https://github.com/geoffder/dometyl-keyboard
