ASPHYXIATION - How well do my predictions hold up?

 

Today for Endless Breath Day (September 28th), Robr0 released Asphyxiation phase 15. Here we can see that my prediction of Sans becoming an amalgamation was true ([Error/No Effect/ it didn't work./I'm Lovin It.]), not only  that but this seems more like the amalgamates in the True Lab with the color removed, as opposed to just melting like Undyne does. And we have this being being undamageable, as in the [Undamageable Screen] for the iPhone XV that represents this phase. I was reading a bit too much into the screen part though.

So, we know that phase 15 doesn't have a restore point now, and likely that there will be no restore point for the remainder of the AU. As such, here is my updated model for phase 16:

The design resembles a less comprehensible version of phase 15, and the phase is hard (like, one-hit kill attacks hard), The reason why is in my first Asphyxiation theory, The NEO Irises probably reference a final eye design being a significant element of the phase, as Sans has had empty eyes for 2 phases now. Phase 16 is likely the last "real" phase, with phase 17 being an epilogue.

With Sans' outfit being merged into his body, the Freshest Cut theory has been disproved, however, what this more obviously references is a slash - perhaps Sans' body is sliced in half during the phase (something Endless Breath hasn't done yet). 

Phase 17 is referenced by Gaster's entries (perhaps one final return of Gaster in the AU? I don't believe he died ever) and the term "The Soups Of The Day" is used to describe it, suggesting Sans' form has degraded even further. It probably becomes a reference to the various "phase 1000000" designs, knowing the AU and its tendency to reference other AUs.
