Squirtoria is better than Chloe in EVERY situation or party comp, no questions about that, even with Chloe's free NP5. She has a hell of a lot overall survivability due to DEF buff and extremely low cooldown powerful heal. The only time where that evasion is more useful is agaisnt enemy NP, which while extremely important, can be handled by the likes of Merlin. Chloe CANNOT do what makes Squirtoria so good, and that is use her NP every single turn (with an NP down debuff no less); put her in with Tamamo Caster and you don't even have to try. I repeat, Chloe CANNOT do this, maybe in some super specific party setup and situation (which would apply to a lot of Servants as well), but her capabilities to do this is nowhere close to Squirtoria.

Will you be fine using Chloe instead of Squirtoria? Of course, as you will be fine using most 4 star single target NP Lancers instead of Tamamo Lancer. As a character vs character comparision, Tamamo Lancer is not as good as Squirtoria but it is true that there is no single target NP welfare Lancer. HOWEVER, since you already got a Scathach, I have no idea why you would go for Tamamo Lancer over Squirtoria, from a purely utilitarian perspective.
