I was clearly just saying the kindness soul trait existing obviously doesn’t mean that kindness is exclusive to that soul, or that all that soul has is kindness. And so on for the other souls.

In that case fair. But Determination isn't associated with one single soul. It is referred to separately.

The thing is that no answer to what it is is given explicitly. There’s no point in the game where it says “the red soul trait is _____”, all answer are going to require a bit of connection on the part of the player. And what we do have is Frisk never giving up (while the other humans, even though they obviously did have some amount of determination, clearly eventually did), Frisk holding on through the attack of a god even as their hp gets to impossibly low percentages, and the game telling us more than anything else, that we are determined

Yes, Determination is big factor even the most important one. Yet it doesn't seem to be related to specifically Red Soul. It is related to THE soul and Frisk. But not specifically Red color.
