Why is installing dictionnaries in Thunderbird now a total mess?
It's not just me!! Many many questions about installing additional (spelling) dictionaries have been posed by the "community". Installing additional (spelling) dictionaries used to be straightforward. Downloading dictionaries is still not a problem, but getting Thunderbird to take them into account is another story. Would it help if you indicated where they should be placed once they are downloaded?
In any event I eventually succeeded but I don't know why. Perhaps because I first downloaded the dictionaries to Firefox.
It's a pity that something that worked well is now a problem . . .

Using this as an example: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/addon/german-dictionary
Clicking the 'Download' button will open a popup with installation instructions. Simply follow the instructions.
Not sure what your problem is. I don't think the way dictionaries are installed for Thunderbird has changed recently.
