I don't think it's solely popularity. DE usually reworks warframes that need a fix before giving them the prime treatment and given that they also have Damage 2.5 on their hands, they likely didn't have the time to pump out a good rework for Zephyr in time for the next prime. Considering that Damage 2.5 has been delayed because of feedback, it's pretty reasonable to say that Zephyr might not be primed until late 2018/early 2019. They'll likely choose Mesa over Zephyr since Mesa is in a strong place right now, then the next two prime frames will be two males, Limbo and Chroma, followed by Zephyr. This of course is just speculation and they could roll out a rework for her in March of 2018 along with her prime version. But to say that Mirage was chosen over Zephyr solely because of popularity isn't quite accurate.
