Nasuverse Fate/Stay Night Reanimation (...by UFOTable)

I would not be surprised if we see an F/sn Sacchin route (despite how little sense that makes, given that they've never met), before we ever see an Ilya route.
Personally, I'm OK with that, but then, I'm not in love with loli routes, even if I feel sorry for the poor adult (age-wise, and sometimes maturity-wise) trapped in a child's body.

But Prisma is kind of... crap?
Ha ha ha, what a Devil's bargain to offer a heroine.
OPTION 1: To remain the pure and ideal heroine, who doesn't receive a route, and and instead must rely on the hopes of the True Fans.
OPTION 2: To finally receive the mantle of heroine, but only in a spin-off with a badly-executed and basically stupid premise.

That's the dumbest logic. Let me put that into perspective with a hypothetical:
"Hey guys, you like Emiya Shirou? Well here's a story about regular average dude Shirou who never went through the fire and has none of the defining character traits you liked about the original character! Nor anything else particularly interesting! In fact we've replaced his personality with a terribly generic one you've seen a million times! But it's okay, he's still the same character, he just has a different backstory!"
No. If you take away all of the personality and defining characteristics about a character, they are no longer that same character. The Illya in Prisma Illya has nothing of what made up the one in Fate/Stay Night. She's just a generic magical girl protagonist.

There's still recognizable traits of Ilya in her Prisma!characterization. Not all of them--the biggest change seems to be the lack of murderous rage, but all I've seen is the anime adaptation so far (which, I'm told, is remarkably accurate to the manga).
As for your hypothetical example, well, as you can see with a LOT of fics, people eat that shit right up! I'm not saying that's good, though, or ideal.
Honestly, though, it just sounds like you're remarkably bitter about the spin-off, which is understandable. But frankly, I don't care. I'd rather see Satsuki get her route than Ilya get hers.

Creating an Ilya route from whole cloth - or even just from the interesting bits of HF - is too much work for any animation team to bother with, surely.
More likely, we'll see another route mashup, another UBW or, as a route not yet adapted, HF. Which would be almost new, in comparison to the same old same old.
Rejoice, Cherry, et cetera?

Well, I'm not overly optimistic that they will actually do HF, certainly they seem to be focussing too much on Saber for it to be a pure HF adaptation. I wouldn't be shocked to see them do all three routes, though. Or attempt some sort of mash-up, which will probably be horrendously bad....
But, yeah, I don't see them going to more effort than they need to, particularly since I don't get the impression that an Ilya route would be much more popular than a HF adaptation (and, it would cause potential issues with censorship, too).

Yeah, that doesn't mean they won't try it again, although I can't see how they can make it work due to the massive differences between three routes.
The previews really do not seem to be focussing on any one route or character, so I suspect they're either going to do a mash-up or else just do all three routes as three seperate seasons.

Well, I agree that they are being intentionally vague, but I find it hard to see them just picking one route given how they've sold it so far. I find it even harder to see them using Saber as the main draw and then picking HF, but HF is also the logical choice since the other two have already been animated and I would imagine Ufotable and TM (assuming TM get royalties) would rather not have competition between them.
