When did the Sam and Dylan routes become mutually exclusive? I always thought it was more that fans didn't like the other character.

I thought so too. I believe the player can be on both routes, but I could be wrong. Been...well, basically 2 years since I've touched my own playthroughs as there's no content for them. I'm a gallery-gamer these days. lol
Well, I ran the Dylan route with Amber in the kitchen, Sophia and Sam in his bedroom and didn't get an option for the Sophia and Dylan bathtub scene, so...?!
Maybe there are other options to take, to get both scenes in one route, but it seems unlikely...otherwise, as said, she would be thinking of her actions with both of them?.....and the same would go for Dylan's thoughts. "Wow! I'm having fun with two MILF'S!"

You're on Dylan/Amber route, not Dylan/Sophia. This last is compatible with Sam/Sophia, at least for now.

Like Bibifoc said, you can only get the scenes with Amber if you send Dylan to boarding school, so have left the main Dylan route. Nothing to do at all with playing the Sam route or not.
I do find it curious listening to many complaining about how the routes are so disconnected, when I've had the completely opposite experience. During the Yoga event, Sophia muses about how relaxed she is about getting naked now, having shown her boobs to several women that day. And Ellie commenting on how nice and quiet it is without Dylan around.
But then I also don't play the routes people are complaining about, so I don't know. I'll have to see if I feel the same way after the next Ellie event.
I'll have to go back and play that route, if I can find it!...and, in which case, I agree with PaxHadrian17's comments.
I have to say, I get lost if there are too many routes to play (and confused, as above!), especially with large time spans between updates (no, I'm not getting into that debate!).
Maybe you've got the right idea and just play one or two routes!?

Actually I play two - the Ellie and Patricia routes. The only problem is that particularly for PDs like this one, there is little point downloading the updates. Last update I even played was v.155, and that was about 45 seconds of content.
But this does have the advantage of simplicity, since none of the content I play is mutually exclusive like the Dylan route is. It also cuts down on the amount of saves I need. The only reason I have multiple saves is for when a new person wants to play say the Ellie/Jules event.

K.I.S.S. (keep it simple stupid) has a value on its own but has a weakness all its own within this game. Simplification does move the story along faster, but in this case, it loses all the early appeal the game had in the beginning. To be sure some of the opening routes where a nothing burger to look forward to (the movers, the janitor, and etc.). While others were eagerly anticipated. You mentioned Jules/Ellie and damn you are right. Jules/Ellie would have made for one hell of a subplot that could have roped Sophia in it as it sort of did in the beginning.
The game is getting down to oversimplification. Worst we are getting to a point where it's getting too predictable. In the beginning we really didn't know what is coming next and we sat back and played, looking for hidden nuggets or finding new interests. Losing the side jobs is a big mistake because the side jobs were introduced and are part of the whole. Now there will be a gap. Where the Movers was perhaps a route in the beginning, they were not developed, and it was a good way to introduce Sophia.
I finally concluded that yes the lack of updates and timely releases are the roots of the problem

How do the side jobs contribute to Sophia's corruption? At all? It's entirely possible to either not wear the nurse outfit for the old farts, or not teach sex ed to the kids. Sure it might be enjoyable content for those that are into those kinks, but that's not the point. Like the Coach Sophia storyline, the side jobs are better off as DLC once L&P has a finished game under his belt. The sex ed classes also don't pass the Pub Test, so are highly likely to cause problems for a Steam release. I suspect L&P knows this but wont admit it. An attempt to speed up progress is a lot more palatable.
The movers were never going to be a route. That much was clear from the walkthrough, since they don't get a highlight. They don't get relationship points. L&P was even abundantly clear they were only going to return at the end of the game. Their only point was to get the ball rolling for Filthy points. Many of the minor characters like the subway thugs, or Janitor Clarke are like that. Even Bennett and possibly Aiden are heading in that direction. Aiden is probably too popular for L&P to openly admit it though.
Jules still does have a chance though. Her next appearance is I believe on PD16 for Ellie Day. And we've already seen that Ellie can use Jules to further her chances with Sophia.

Janitor Clark is right after the big 6 in the popularity chart with 109 votes while Alyssa doesn’t have even half of his votes (48). If it goes by popular vote then Janitor Clark needs more screen time and it is to wonder someone how Alyssa is competing Ellie at par on Sophia’s lesbian corruption!
Don’t get me wrong, I like Alyssa’s route (honestly more than Ellie’s)!
The above controversy allows me to conclude that LP is either:
- following his own original path ignoring the popular vote or
- the popular vote will shape the future events soon
Let’s see!

If it goes by popular vote, then Ellie should have about the same screentime as Dylan. She clearly doesn't. By my count Ellie only has half the number of events that Dylan does. And her events are only a fraction of the size.Janitor Clark is right after the big 6 in the popularity chart with 109 votes while Alyssa doesn’t have even half of his votes (48).

But as I've said ad nauseam, Ellie events get to hot content early. 40 renders to get both Parker women naked during the last Ellie shower.
Ellie's even the next one in with a chance to be the first to get Sophia off. As far as I'm aware neither Sam or Dylan managed to achieve it this PD.
what about the dev make skip-time in the game to sophia events and after come back to other characters events or flashbacks
with that rate we will get bored to death

An attempt to speed up progress is a lot more palatable. **Yes and no it kind of does in its own warped way. I would have preferred those side jobs have never been started to begin with. The old men and Sophia's personality along with her tastes in men just never worked out from the beginning. The tutoring was so poorly done with the "corruption" of Sophia, it just missed so many plausible ways that story arche could be carried out. But they are in the game...right now and there is no closure, there is no work around that furthers the story at all. A long time ago I mentioned that Sophia's character build was a little off. To have either the job at the retirement home or tutoring work, Sophia from the very started needed to like the attention she gets from men (and women) ... she needed to be proud and vain of her looks as well. And if there was any "kink" Sophia needed it to even allow either the old folks or tutoring to have any creditability. Plus, those two-story arches just get in the way of better routes that could be small but entertaining. I'd like more Zac and his mother complicating Sophia's life--that would have taken the maid route out of the loop. Which at this rate we can forget that maid-Sophia event never happened since things are getting simplified.
The movers were never going to be a route. That much was clear from the walkthrough, since they don't get a highlight. They don't get relationship points. L&P was even abundantly clear they were only going to return at the end of the game. Their only point was to get the ball rolling for Filthy points. Many of the minor characters like the subway thugs, or Janitor Clarke are like that. Even Bennett and possibly Aiden are heading in that direction. Aiden is probably too popular for L&P to openly admit it though. I hate the Bennet route more than the side jobs route. To easy a solution for Sophia to solve...all she did have to do is go on a "date" with Bennet and get Bennet to admit to the blackmail while recording on a cell phone and have the choice of threating to expose him or just expose him. Aiden route was a total missed opportunity... I'd have liked that one to continue but the tasks where so lame. And the developer could have done so much more with Aiden story line.
Jules still does have a chance though. Her next appearance is I believe on PD16 for Ellie Day. And we've already seen that Ellie can use Jules to further her chances with Sophia. Am worried "Ellie" Day will be as lame as Aiden route... could have been better but wasn't just to keep the slow burn going
