What if you went through a Genocide run without saving, then reset before it saved for real (probably at the very end)?

I tried this, but I got stuck at the Sans fight and wasn't able to test this idea. I died to him 103 times. That's not to say I didn't die before, I died 12 times to Undyne the Undying, but thanks to the games autosaves I didn't have to restart from the beginning though it was a long walk from the autosave point to that fight. But since I was using my sister's game (using steam sharing) she couldn't play her other games, which she got tired of pretty quick so she made me give up.

Those autosaves are sort of why I believe this was meant to be done. After all, there are save points everywhere, so why would you need the autosaves? And since the game recognizes a lot of odd things (changing the soundtrack, cheating to be LV1 in a genocide run, repeatedly resetting in the judgement hall in the pacifist run, ect.) why not this?

I'm aware this idea is somewhat insane, maybe stupid, but hey it's just an idea. I'm going to try again at some point, but has anyone done this yet? Do you think it'd do anything, or am I just wasting my time?
