Not sure if there really is a "next" coming. LEGO games getting remastered is rather the exception, not the rule. And beyond LSW1 and LSW2 being put together into LSWCS - and the Potter remaster, which were necessary to get then rather recently released games to the next console generation, it never really happened.
This new Potter remaster for me is more a sign that after the desaster that the Rocksteady Suicide game was WB desperately needs some new money and with the success of Hogwarts Legacy they knew that the Potter IP still is able to make some cash. (In contrast to Star Wars, DC, Marvel or that Tolkien-mockery Amazon are doing at the moment. All of which are not doing that great...) So they put out anything Potter - and pushing out a cheap, quick and easy to make remaster of a remaster was the, well, cheapest, quickest and easiest way... ;)

It's an interesting analysis you've put forward here, I very much like this theory. I'm hoping against hope that the LEGO Harry Potter Collection will maybe be a sort of trial run to see if a Skywalker Saga-esque LEGO Harry Potter game would do well, I really hope they will make some sort of game like that in the near future.

You're welcome. :)
Don't get me wrong, I would also be interested in remasters especially of the old X360 area open world games Batman II and Lord of the Rings. The low range details and pop ins in the open world look really dated. So those from a technical öpoint of view could profit most from a remaster. And some of the games would also need a proper bug fix.
I am just very sceptical it will ever happen. Also with the problems the new engine for Skywalker Saga seems to have and another studio now doing LEGO Horizon Adventures - let's see if there are any more LEGO games at all from TT... :(
