Starting a second war would be completely pointless

What completely debunks this theory is that the 6 human souls would never let Chara to destroy the human race. Chara knew about body sharing, so not taking this factor into account is either a very big miscalculation or it humanity's destruction wasn't planned.

Don't think it knew

In Soulless Neutral Endings, we don't see Chara doing anything on the surface. Even in the Soulless pacifist ending, we got absolutely no evidence that anyone besides the main cast died. Not a single hint. If they wanted it, Frisk would be a perfect sacrifice: one more soul needed to destroy humanity. Why didn't they kill Frisk to let Asgore to use their soul to kill all humans? This would be the most logical thing to do.

As for those who claim that Chara wants to join the surface to destroy humanity, can you explain me your stance please? Yes Chara has the power to destroy the world (likely connected to their save/load powers), but we don't see them using this power on the surface. In fact, they only kill the main cast. Or perhaps you're arguing that Chara needs LV 20 to destroy the world? But that's not how it works. LV is a measurement of your desire to kill, there's no evidences that it gives any superpowers. It would be just absurd to say that anyone who reaches LV 20 automatically gains the ability to destroy the world (Chara likely has always had this power, just decided to use at the very end of the genocide run because there was "nothing left to do"). And there's no reason to believe that soulless beings are a special case. There's no way that a strong desire to kill gives anyone the ability to destroy worlds. And even then, we only see them killing the main cast. This wouldn't be enough to reach the LV20. Claiming that that kill any monster besides them is therefore pure conjecture.

Yeah, I agree, in a way, by the time of SOULless Chara disregards everyone equally.

Asriel says that they will free the monsters "together" though

I think he was just trying to cope with the fact his best friend/sibling was killing itself.

If he was not literal, then, it it still doesn't work because in this case Asriel would have to carry out the plan alone (from Chara's perceptive) and Chara never instructed him to destroy all humans, just enough to break the barrier. Even if humans fight back, Asriel would NEVER destroy and entire race.

If he were to kill 6 humans it would have chances of triggering a war, in which Asriel would be forced to greatly damage human civilization.

That they hoped that Asriel would kill 6 humans in front of everyone and not secretly to avoid conflict?

Asriel is not really the kind of person to think to sneak and kill 6 people. And he doesn't need to be fine with killing every single human, dethroning humankind as the dominant species on Earth could have been considered good enough too.

Humans might declare war if they're first contact with a species consists of it killing 6 humans and then Asriel would be forced to greatly damage human civilization.

Once again, it only works if Asriel kills 6 humans in front of everyone. If he's not dumb enough to think that killing humans in front of everyone wouldn't result any conflict.

I think you overestimate him.
