The Original FSN with Ayaka as the MC was already finish before TM decided to turn Nasu's LN into a VN and switch the Shiro for Ayaka.
That was the original reason why Ayaka was changed to Shirou but considering that Ayaka and Shirou are two completely different characters, with Shirou having multiple sides to him, I think Nasu put a lot more thought into it afterwards than just swapping genders. Really I think Fate/Prototype is only similar to the Fate route. UBW and Heaven's Feel seem completely different.

Yeah but those were completely new stories, non-canon and only semi-serious at most.
