You are pretty much correct, though I disagree with the amalgamate theory. Looked like he knows his fate being death. "welp, guess that's it, then."

I agree that Chara killed them, but the kill was counted in a special way. Chara is in the game, and so, they can interact with the world, not us. Because of this, they can look at things we can't, for example, the spectacular pattern on the walls. As the player, we cannot see anything other than the front of our vision in battle. When sans walks away, we can't see them. Because of this, he either died or didn't. We can never be sure, but chara can. You can use the stats and quote from Chara themself, but if you think about it, we accumulated the stats, not them. They just told us there is this much left. That is what I think at least. I might be wrong, as usual.

Either way, there is also the assumption that the colors are not only traits but status too, like sans's eye, but that is me pulling out of a hat.
