No wonder Emiya, Illya, and Kerry also has shitty NP gen.
Guess only Siegfried is safe from it.

Fionn is a goddamn anomaly in perspective.
Something
his npgain represents his role as a RP source
I cursed Fionn during the first Bryn gacha and my grudge has stained him to this day y’all can blame me for that
Implying your curse was stronger than that of Midorikawa fans during Zero
Their curse erased Zero!Fionn from existence which is why no one talks about him anymore
My curse crippled GO!Fionn and made everyone treat him like a fool i think we know which curse is stronger
Fionn with beard

Props, but that's only really scratching the surface.Huh. Lore Research...
During HF when Shirou goes shopping with Ilya, she sings Die Lorelei. The Lorelei is a water sprite that lives next to the Rhine river and is a candidate for Wagner's inspiration for the Rhine maidens, the guardians of the Rhinegold, in his Das Rheingold. Furthermore, the Rhine maidens and the Lorelei are known to be water spirits. And the homunculi of the Einzbern are children of nature, artificial nature spirits. Kotomine says that the Einzbern excel at using the legend of the Rhinegold and that makes a lot of sense when you consider that the apprentices of the Third made a workshop of artificial Rhine Maidens. While also explains why all the Einzbern homunculi are female. Although I can't say that for certain since there isn't a statement saying they're all female.
Also you'll notice their magecraft attribute is the transfer/flow of power. Ilya can shift things into other things.
This makes sense if you consider how the rhinegold itself was forged into a ring in the legend and then how the curse was then transferred and flowed through different people. It wouldn't be a surpise if the foundation of the Einzbern magecraft is in the legends of the transmutation of the rhinegold.Flow/transfer of power
Magic attribute that Einzbern magi are skilled in. They are specialized at the transmutation and creation of materials, that is, alchemy, using this attribute, and are highly skilled in the production of homunculi. Ilya often uses magic, using the attribute of transferring, to move the consciousness of others to something else.
In essence, as they are artificial Rhine maidens of course they would excel at using the concept of the Rhinegold, an object as well a legend that has strong ties with the flow and transfer of power to alchemy.
Lastly you'll notice how Zouken and Justeaze's story parallels that of Alberich and the Rhine maidens. In the legend only someone who has thrown away love can obtain the gold which they can forge into a ring to gain mastery of the world. Albreich being humiliated by the Rhine maidens decides to throw away his love for the Rhinegold. In the same way. When Zouken arrives to the Einzbern he develops complicated feelings for Justeaze, he both hates her for having the Third, pities her because of her condition and admires her. But at the promise of fulfilling his original goal of saving the world, he throws all that away and helps the family forge her into the Greater Grail.

Though abandoned, forgotten, and scorned as out-of-date dolls, they continue to carry out their mission, unchanged from the time they were designed.
Machines do not lose their worth when a newer model appears.
Their worth (life) ends when humans can no longer bear that purity.
I think it that all Einzbern homunculi being female makes sense because they are all modeled after Justeave to try replicate her. The only male Einzbern is Ach but when I was looking it up he was said to be a golem, not a homunculi.

anywhere than here
They're not all modeled after Justeaze, else there'd be no point in specifying that Iri and Illya are Justeaze models.
Localizationing stuff
Either you get a Fionn where people treat as a joke or a Fionn smeared with shit. Your call.
I would take the third option and see Fionn do something impressive for once, but sadly that's just wishful thinking. There is a possibility of a Third War VN could do that but A) it's not guarantee B) any more VN TM releases has to come after Tsukihime and C) in one of those routes he still get's stomped by Amakusa. Of course this is all hinging on if they decide to take Apo anime into account.

Angra vs. Fionn is guaranteed to let Fionn get one win on his belt
Isn't Fionn supposed to be a powerful Servant?
Spoiler:
He won the Third Holy Grail War.

I'd imagine the way Amakusa beat Fionn was command seal suicide. You need to keep up the Irish Lancer tradition.
Amakusa probably make each one of his competitors commit suicide

Yeah just like Scathach oh wait
I guess most people didn't read lancer Artoria's interlude.
5* interlude is bad civilization though.
Yeah, the one who stabbed Scathach made Arjuna pee in his pants
