but that excuse doesnt hold water either, why spend money on a remake when you can make money on a quick and easy and CHEAP remaster/re-release without any effort or inevitable backlash around casting choices

Remasters rarely make money.

The Blu-ray remaster of Star Trek (can't remember which series) lost money.

No one would buy a re-release of a decade old Harry Potter film.

Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone was 2001, 25 years ago. Deathly Hallows was 2011, 15 years ago.
