Nobody has to be eradicated in the True Pacifist ending that's why it's called the True Pacifist Route. I'm fully aware of why those endings are your favourites but personally I can find at least one thing troubling in every variation of the Neutral ending. Oh no but caging them up again is sooo much better. How exactly is that going to work in terms of logistics, Frisk didn't go through all that trouble to break the barrier just so someone could erect another one. How is it even going to work? Assuming another barrier is possible (which it isn't) what if during the time it would take to get such a complicated plan in action a Monster falls in love with a human or becomes friends with one? "True Pacifist" and "Genocide" were named by the fans. They aren't actually official, and therefore, we can't just assume they're 100% accurate. Frisk flirting with literally every monster is also very common along the fandom. (Also, pacifist means YOU don't kill anyone. Doesn't mean nobody else kills everybody. Asgore still dies in the PACIFIST variation of a Neutral Run, and it's still called "Pacifist" by the fans.)

Are you talking about the death of Asgore? Well, why do you think I said the PACIFIST variation of it? (The one where you literally don't kill any monsters, but still don't break the barrier)

First off, it was Asriel that broke the barrier. Second, breaking the barrier was a bad idea. A big mistake. It shouldn't have happened at all. We're erecting another barrier to fix the problem that Asriel caused.

Third... We have a LONG time before that happens if the ending itself is to believed. We don't see a single other human in the entire ending, and yet Mettaton is performing, on a stage, to a LOT of monsters. They must have built that themselves. They haven't met any other humans yet.

Fourth, that's the problem with the True Pacifist Ending as a whole. No matter what you do, there's a chance everybody dies. At least in this scenario we have a chance of surviving since we're not rolling that die of chance an infinite number if times.
