Frankly, I consider the name calling of Sakura to be probably born of two factors.

1. A lot of people have no idea what Heaven's Feel is other than that it is the Sakura route.

2. Waifu wars and Sakura isn't their pick.

Personally, I like Sakura the least out of the three given options. However, I do find the presence of her route to be essential to flesh out Shirou's character. She's pitiable but I feel she's almost more an accessory. In Fate, Shirou mostly holds his ground and Saber is the one who changes. In UBW, Shirou and Rin both change and kind of meet in the middle. In Heaven's Feel, Sakura doesn't feel like she changes much but rather is a catalyst for Shirou's change. Obviously, each one changes far less in routes not their own but I think this reflects worse on Sakura for me because she's more the catalyst even in her own. To me, this makes her a bit more boring as a person, regardless of what I may think about Heaven's feel on a whole.
