'Au moins, tout est bien qui finit bien.' Is 'au moins' preferable to 'du moins' in this kind of expression?

Why past tense is used here? Why shouldn't be present tense as she still like playing the instrument at present time.
What is the difference between « cet costume vous va bien » and « cet costume vous convient »?
Are the baby names inherently masculine, or do they have female counterparts too, such as un chiot --> une chiotte; un chaton --> une chatonne etc?
Why is the subjonctif présent of "partir" used in the above sentence when the sentence refers to the past tense? It was written in English as "Before they went to live over there". Why is it not "Avant qu'ils ne soient partis s'installer là-bas" ? Can someone please enlighten me? Thank you.

Questions on ‘partir, sortir, quitter’ which comprise one, some or all answers are so inconsistent, I find it very irritating. Sometimes when I choose all three (excluding ‘laisser’ of course), only ‘partir’ is the answer deemed acceptable. sometimes, when I select ‘partir’ only, all three are given as correct. More context please.
Why is is not "vous n'avez pas DE petite place......"?
