Post Gdsd and prodrive prop
I see both are threaded. Are they interchangeable?

Don't think so.

Why YES they are...

The PD 2 blade is very similar to the 2 blade Hopkins that GD used
to use and the 3 blade GD is popular on the 25 and 27 PDs....

Don't mean to change the direction but what would be the gain on putting a 3 blade gd prop on a 27 pd

May be the same threads but I bet that little bushing they put in the PD is the difference. It's made to clamp onto the upper shoulder of the shaft to take the load off of the threaded part of the shaft. (I don't know what the GD prop looks like, just stating what I do know about the PD prop) If the GD prop doesn't have this bushing you strip the threads or something.

So why are ProDrive props so much easier to remove than GDs. Or is it more smoke and mirrors.

PD owner's are smarter than GD owners.
