Dissecting and debunking the Ralsei is Asriel theory

The theory that Ralsei is actually Asriel has been spread throughout the Deltarune fandom like wildfire, and I, in response to it, have chisled away at this idiotic fucking video for a whole ass month, to try and dissuade some people from preaching this faulty theory as fact. Deltarune isn't out yet, so differing interpretations of the plot and worldbuilding are inevitable, but when a loud subsect of a fandom starts treating Headcanon as Fact, I start to have an issue.

TL;DR / TL;DW:
Ralsei and Asriel are different characters when examined further than just their surface level traits. The traits they DO have in common are often shared with other characters (namely, other boss monsters), just like each other, and it’s very possible that Ralsei’s name being an anagram of Asriel’s is just an aesthetic choice (just like Kris = Chara + Frisk, Suzy and Susie, Undertale and Deltarune, and so on, shuffling of letters and words just seems to be a general theme). Ralsei is much more resilient than Asriel is, and he has a much more grounded idea of morality and his duty, and seems unshaken by the threats people throw his way while Asriel is a canonical cry baby. Asriel is in collage during Deltarune, and there’s nothing to explain why or how he would be able to fit into the prophecy of a “prince from the dark”, when in Deltarune, he is neither a prince nor a darkner.
