..About that button, it's really that we don't know WHAT Frisk does. We know for a fact they have to be doing something, and we get into a lot of problems if we say they somehow leave the world, so that means they likely just LOADed-Technically, this even makes sense from a meta perspective-When you close the game, the game actually already reverts back to its previous file, as if a LOAD had happened, and this is true for every game with save files to ever exist. All the data except for the SAVE (and variables that transcend through SAVEs is deleted, so we're already at the menu to LOAD or SAVE. So when we close the game, that's when Frisk prepares to LOAD. Or to RESET. Whether it's yet another button like all the other buttons we've seen, whether Frisk mentally does it, we don't know. I just went with your button idea because it fit everything else we knew about the HUD the best. Technically, this is something we can never know for sure.

By the way, these two can't be compared together. DT and SOUL power just not being the same is enough to make there not be a paradox (and if you looked at my post, you'd see that the case is actually NOT "power of the SOUL" isn't SOUL power, and that in fact not even "power of the SOUL" was said in those plaques), while no matter which of our theories we believe, the problem of how Frisk reloads without dying is always there: The evidence speaks for itself.
