Why is the House Advantage for the blackjack TriLux side bet (25:1, 15:1, 10:1, 5:1) higher than than the 21+3 side bet where all payouts are 9:1?

Because paying the flush 5:1 instead of 9:1 adds about 22% or so to the house edge. All the increases in the top payouts, which are much more rare, can't overcome that.
Casinos are not your friends, they want your money. But so does Disneyland.
And there is no chance in hell that you will go to Disneyland and come back with more money than you went with.
