Except wouldn't genderswapped Saber just be Prototype Saber?
Didn't Prototype Saber have a whole different personality or something? So a genderswapped Saber may not essentially be Prototype Saber even though Prototype Saber was genderswapped to make Saber.

My head hurts think about it.
True, Prototype Saber had a more upbeat personality and liked to tease it's master. He also didn't had any regrets of his past life unlike Fate/Saber. Those 2 are like day and night, a total different personality.
Basically, the whole dynamic of Shiro + Saber and ProtoSaber + Female Protagonist aren't anything like each other at all. Most of the entire story needed to be changed just to compensate for "Genderswapped" Saber and Male Shirou being the "new" main characters.
