Every male character would be better if they were female.

No? We can't self insert as him if he's a girl.

He's cuter as a boy

Thematically a lot of things would have to change for it to hit similarly, because a big part of the franchise is commenting on Otaku culture and male toxicity.

But Shinji is a better girl as a boy...

That'd just make him Rei.

No, but Asuka would be better as a boy

The story wouldn't work because He do would have sexually abuse her instead of abandoned her.

Boy Asuka would rape her

He might act feminine but the deeper parts of his character centered around resentment and release through violence and lashing out work better with a male MC. Women can chimp out of course but it's usually more atomized while men can unleash their rage upon the world.
