You dont need to Root to get Chrome there are several FREE apps on Amazon that work great with the Fire. Apps for Yahoo Well most anyting you want!

Guess again.
Selecting a default search engine is NOT the same as selecting a different web browser.
You said, "I do no side loading nor hacking of any kind."
If you want Chrome, you DO need to sideload install it. Since you don't side load, then you aren't using Chrome... you are stuck with Silk as your
web browser.
My previous comments and cautions stand.
