I'm going to answer many of your questions, Ambassador, when the script is finished, so I'll have to defer a lot of answers until then.

But please, can you make your responses more compact? While reading that, it's very hard to tell which words were mine, and which are yours reacting to mine. And I try to make things as clear and understandable as I possibly can.

A few odds and ends though:

Sans doesn't have 0 HP when you hit him. Chara believes that San only had 1 HP to begin with, yet just like the Licorish-flavored monster candy, Chara, like the player, really doesn't know anything until they both experience it. Sans takes a gawd-awful amount of damage from Chara's attack, yet still manages to stand up again after taking over a MILLION DAMAGE. We don't know that Sans went to Zero HP, because we have no idea what San's hit point total actually is.

Alphys gave all of the Fallen Down monsters repeated direct injections of Determination extracted directly from the six human souls. While she only gave Undyne frozen treats containing trace amounts of Determination from a light touch from a single one of those souls. The Amalgamates are unkillable because they contain a TON of determination, vs the trace amounts Undyne has. And yet, it took these extreme amounts to wake the Fallen Down monsters up again. Something was clearly wrong with the Fallen in the first place.

Shapeshifting isn't exactly the same as a Transformers-like physical rearraignment. And Mettaton was required by his programming to help Alyphs with ther plan to befriend Frisk, until he finally rebelled at the end during the showdown. And don't forget that Mettaton was definitely NOT afraid of fighting Frisk directly. Mettaton was invulnerable to physical damage until the switch flip, he could have just run over Frisk with is unicycle wheel and a million pounds of pressure and crushed him. Mettaton is a much more direct and personal sort, not a spider queen.
