Hard to say. I definitely feel that the final three novels would absolutely need a solid twelve or thirteen episodes to be done any amount of justice. The writing gets a little dense there.
I see, I would suggest in that case a 26 episodes cour on a 4th season and final but it might be 13 like you mention. I would add a OVA before the 4th season and after to properly convey things. I would follow that same way with 3rd season but it seems the movie might do that job. In it there are new characters too. Any clue on them from LN you can fill me in buddy?
That being there were six months between when I read that final story arc and when I read what came before it, so I can't really comment properly on how much could be cut from all that without hurting anything. I'm gonna say the best move would probably be to divide it into a season of 26 and a season of 13 though. So 26 episodes for the next 6 volumes and then 13 episodes for the final 3.
I agree with this but suggest OVAs to be added for extra stuff that is planned to be cut out to include in this. Such as service related stuff and MOE.
Definitely looking forward to a third season too though.
I've heard good things about Psychopass and I've been interested in Muv Luv for a while. Didn't realize that had been animated. Actually downloaded a translation of one of the visual novels once but I didn't really manage to get too deep into it before life caught up with me. I'll have to keep an eye open.
Indeed. Muv Luv is nice in that the service is of a mature tone. You won't see lolis and stuff like Index. Only grown up woman with hot bodies. Psychopass is more on the psychological side of things. Muv is more graphical.
Oh. That's a shame. Are you eating right? Have you talked to a doctor? Either way I hope this gets better for you soon.
I am eating right. Not the best but not at worst. Don't trust doctors and don't trust our system but I might have to go soon TBH. I hope so too. Perhaps more gym shall fix things up.
Replies in bold as usual.
A work of mines:

something to watch soon, comedy wise and to see S1 if you did not. Despite the service, the art appeal and fun is quite there.
