Have fun with that

Monsters are made of dust and magic from an in-universe scientific standpoint but who they decide to be and what kind of person they wish to live their lives as makes them no different from any human. We don't really USE fire anymore. We use electricity and electromagnetic waves now! In modern times, fire is only used as a WEAPON (Flamethrowers).

Also, do note that in the case of monsters on the surface, ALL of civilizatin is at stake. Asriel could literally have wiped out both humans and monsters with his powers. And I don't see a better way to prevent an incident from EVER happening.

Correct:The monsters' assumption that they are made of love, hope, and compassion is incorrect, and has no basis. But they believe it just as much, and therefore, went to the surface, assuming an incident would never happen. It is true that they're made of magic, but not the other three things they say in the librarby. (Yes, I mispelled it. I did it the same way the monsters did.) It's used for far more than flamethrowers I assure you.

Asriel outright stated he didn't care about anything to do the human world and just wanted to play God with Frisk's timeline.

Love, hope and compassion are not determined by the metaphysical state of ones soul but by the subjective experience of the individual so it doesn't matter to me what the Monsters are I've always been far more invested in who they are.
